Senior Product Marketing Manager

Microsoft Teams is the AI-powered hub for communication and collaboration, designed to bring people, content, and workflows together in one simple, smart, secure, and integrated platform. It empowers users to connect seamlessly through chat, calls, and meetings while leveraging intelligent features like Microsoft 365 Copilot to streamline tasks, generate insights, and enhance productivity. With deep integration across Microsoft 365 and extensibility through apps and connectors, Teams reduces tool fragmentation, improves governance, and accelerates time-to-value. By enabling real-time co-creation, personalized assistance, and enterprise-grade security, Teams helps organizations foster engagement, simplify operations, and unlock the full potential of collaborative work in the era of AI.

You will lead positioning and go-to-market strategies for innovations like channel agents—virtual teammates embedded in channels—external agents in channels, and Teams Mode for Copilot, which brings collaborative AI into group chats for real-time brainstorming, co-creation, and assistance. You’ll also drive engagement with channels in Teams, including the new Threads experience.

As a Senior Product Marketing Manager, you’ll craft compelling narratives, maintain customer and market insights, and partner closely with engineering, sales, and field teams to accelerate customer success. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of collaborative AI innovation and Teams, shaping how millions of users experience teamwork in the age of intelligent collaboration. This role is suited for a strategic thinker and compelling storyteller who thrives at the intersection of product, customer, and market insights.
