About the role

We are Progress (Nasdaq: PRGS) - the trusted provider of software that enables our customers to develop, deploy and manage responsible, AI-powered applications and experiences with agility and ease.  

We’re proud to have a diverse, global team where we value the individual and enrich our culture by considering varied perspectives because we believe people power progress. Join us as a Senior Director, Product Marketing and help us do what we do best: propelling business forward.  This will be a remote role though due to being a global team, the ideal candidate will be on the East Coast of the US.

Progress is transforming how enterprises run, secure, and scale mission-critical infrastructure—and we need a world-class product marketing leader to drive a unified platform narrative in an AI-era market.

As Senior Director of Product Marketing for our INFRA Business Unit, you will own the global go-to-market strategy for one of Progress's most strategically important portfolios: a full-stack infrastructure management platform spanning network monitoring, security, observability, configuration automation, and application delivery. This is not a support function—this is a seat at the table where product strategy, revenue performance, customer insight, competitive positioning, and market narrative converge.

You will lead the commercial evolution and unified narrative of four industry-proven products—WhatsUp Gold, Flowmon, Chef, and LoadMaster—as we accelerate a deliberate transition to SaaS, unify the portfolio under the INFRA 360 platform experience, and embed AI-driven intelligence across the stack. You will own how the market sees Progress INFRA as an integrated solution, not four separate products—and drive the growth that proves it.

This role also has a critical mandate: to lead Progress PMK's transformation into an AI-era function. The right leader will bring a modern, solutions-marketing approach to narrative architecture, competitive strategy, analyst relations, win/loss intelligence, and field enablement—using AI and data to move faster on execution while keeping humans focused on the irreplaceable work of strategic judgment, positioning rigor, and narrative differentiation.

 
In this role, you will:

INFRA 360 Platform Narrative & Positioning 

Define and own the unified INFRA 360 positioning framework that connects product capabilities to enterprise priorities: infrastructure modernization, hybrid/cloud migration, application resilience, security and compliance, DevOps transformation, and AI-assisted operations.
Ensure the platform narrative is the organizing principle for all go-to-market strategy, sales plays, competitive positioning, and field enablement. Success = one clear story about what INFRA 360 solves and why it matters, not four separate product narratives.

Competitive Strategy & Analyst Relations (Core Strategic Moat)

Competitive Intelligence Synthesis: Build and maintain a competitive intelligence function powered by AI tools (Klue, Crayon, Common Room, etc.) for signal ingestion and pattern detection. Your role: executive synthesis, strategic framing, and competitive response planning—not data collection.
Analyst Relations (AR) Strategy: Cultivate and own relationships with leading infrastructure analysts (Gartner, Forrester, IDC) to shape Progress INFRA category perception, secure favorable positioning, and influence buyer evaluation criteria. Analyst relations is a strategic defense and offense motion—not a support function.
Create competitive battlecards, positioning frameworks, and sales plays grounded in real competitive differentiation, not rhetoric. Update continuously as the market and competition evolve.

Revenue & Market Intelligence (Win/Loss & Sales Strategy)

Win/Loss Program: Establish a rigorous win/loss system to understand why deals close or slip—across transaction type (new, renewal, expansion, competitive displacement) and buyer segment. Use findings to improve positioning, inform sales strategy, contribute to roadmap decisions, measure competitive win rates, and track SaaS adoption.
Pipeline & Performance: Drive marketing contribution to pipeline, ARR, and revenue OKRs in partnership with Demand Gen, Sales, and Channel teams. Own success metrics: pipeline contribution, technical win rates, sales play adoption, SaaS migration velocity, competitive displacement, attach rates, cross-product adoption.
Pricing & Packaging: Partner with Product and Finance on value-based pricing and packaging strategy for infrastructure offerings, including subscription, usage-based, pooled, and enterprise models.
