Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager

Overview

The Microsoft Global Industry Marketing team brings Microsoft's agentic platform and our Intelligence + Trust value differentiation to life in the context of each industry vertical. Our mission is to help customers navigate their AI transformation by translating Microsoft's platform capabilities into the highest-impact, highest-value use cases that materially drive AI innovation and business impact for their industry. We collaborate across product, engineering, field, and partner ecosystem to accelerate customer time to AI value realization, ensuring every industry customer sees a clear, credible path from Microsoft's technology to the outcomes that matter most in their business.

As Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager on Global Industry Marketing team, you will lead the technical go-to-market for our priority industry use cases, building the technical assets and readiness that bring those use cases to life across field and partner ecosystem. You will sit at the center of a rare cross-section of the company - product marketing, engineering, field, and partners - turning our technical capabilities into accelerated, industry specific value realization.

This is a build role, not a maintain role. You will get to define how we design Industry use case reference architectures, how we package and deliver the Industry accelerators, and how we scale repeatable, use case anchored agent patterns through field and partners.

Partnering closely with product teams (Azure, AI business solutions, Security), Microsoft Frontier Company (Microsoft's new operating unit focused on enterprise AI deployment outcomes), you will define the direction of how we build the technical narratives, bill of materials, and contextual reference architectures for priority use cases, each mapped to our platform and value differentiation and translated into outcomes customers can immediately understand and act on.

From there, you will be working with Industry CTO and Industry Technical Product Marketers to bring that foundation to life, enabling each industry team to adapt it to the specific verticals and use cases they own, so every industry operates from a consistent core while staying tailored to their customers' reality.

As the connective tissue between Microsoft's technical capabilities and high-value industry scenarios, you will represent the voice of the field, partners, and customers to validate what drives impact, surface gaps, and continuously refine the Industry technical assets and overall go-to-market approach.

This is a strategic, high-visibility role for someone who is equally fluent in AI technology and the commercial buying journey, with a strong focus on delivering measurable customer outcomes.

Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.

In alignment with our Microsoft values, we are committed to cultivating an inclusive work environment for all employees to positively impact our culture every day.
