Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

We're hiring a Director of Product Marketing to own the go-to-market strategy for 1Password's core product portfolio: Enterprise Password Manager, SaaS Manager, and Device Trust. This role reports to the VP of Solutions Marketing.

This is a senior leadership role with two responsibilities that carry equal weight: running a strong PMM team, and owning the positioning, narrative, and GTM execution for 1Password's core products.

You'll work closely with Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Brand Marketing. The expectation: strong output from your team, and a visible lift in the quality of thinking across every team you partner with.

How we’re using AI today

Our Engineering, Product, and Design teams are thoughtfully integrating AI across the full software and product development lifecycle to move faster without sacrificing quality or security. In practice, that looks like engineers using AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate reviews and catch bugs earlier, product managers synthesizing user research at scale, and designers rapidly prototyping and iterating with AI-generated mockups. We approach AI the same way we approach security: with clear principles, human accountability at every consequential decision point, and rigorous evaluation before anything ships to customers.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the US.

What we're looking for:

Experience and Domain Expertise

• 10+ years of B2B SaaS product marketing experience, with strong depth in identity security, credentials management, or access governance.

• Hands-on experience positioning AI-adjacent or AI-native security solutions.

• A working understanding of how identity security needs to evolve to support developers and AI builders.

• Able to market technically complex products to different audiences — IT leaders, security engineers, CISOs — without losing coherence across them.

• A track record in competitive markets where winning required unseating incumbents or reframing a category, not just occupying one.

Technical Depth

• You understand how AI agents are reshaping identity and access security requirements.

• Working knowledge of developer toolchains — IDEs, GitHub Actions, CI/CD platforms — and the secrets management patterns that surround them.

AI-Forward, Not AI-Dependent

• You use AI to go faster, not to think less. You know what to hand off and what to own, and you can tell good output from output that still needs work.

• You want AI to free up time for the work only a good product marketer can do: strategy, judgment, and narrative.

• You own the ideas you bring, regardless of how you made them. Walk into a room with a recommendation and you can defend it. Candidates who produce content but can’t explain the thinking behind it won’t fit here.

Strategic Storytelling and Senior-Level Communication

• You write for multiple audiences without diluting the message. A CISO and a platform engineer aren’t reading the same document for the same reason — you know how to serve both.

• Strong narrative instincts: open with the problem, build to the solution, and leave the reader feeling like the product was built for their situation.

• You’ve shaped category narratives, not just contributed to them.

People Leadership

• 3+ years managing PMMs directly, with clear examples of people you’ve developed and grown.

• You know how to make a good PMM better: cleaner thinking, stronger writing, more effective in a room.

• You’ve hired well. You know what strong looks like at each level and you build toward it.

• You give your team clarity on priorities, ownership, and why their work matters.

Bonus points for:

• Security certifications (CISSP, Security+, or similar).

• Experience driving thought leadership in a fast-moving technology category. 1Password has a team that executes content; this role provides the point of view and substance that makes it worth publishing.

What you can expect:

Lead and Develop the Team

• Directly manage a team of product marketers covering our core products.

• Set clear expectations, manage performance without avoidance, and build a team that does sharp work and gives honest feedback.

• Coach each PMM to do better work: clearer thinking, stronger writing, more effective in front of stakeholders.

• Give the team what they need: clear priorities, clear ownership, and a direct line between their work and business outcomes.

Own Full-Stack Product Marketing for Core Products

• Own messaging, positioning, and launch strategy for EPM, SaaS Manager, and Device Trust.

• Define the market narrative that reframes 1Password’s core products in the age of AI and automation.

• Tell the story simply — to analysts, customers, sellers, and SEs. Coach your team to do the same. Work with the broader PMM team to keep the platform story coherent.

Build Competitive Intelligence and Category Positioning

• Own positioning and market leadership claims across EPM, SaaS Manager, and Device Trust. Partner with Solutions Marketing on competitive differentiation and solution narratives. Partner with Solutions Marketing to develop validated competitive differentiation and solution narratives.

• Give AEs and SEs a clear, confident answer to why 1Password wins.

• Identify where the market is moving, and stake 1Password’s claim early.

Enable the Field with Tools That Actually Get Used

• Produce discovery decks, battlecards, objection-handling guides, and technical briefs that sellers and SEs reach for because they work.

• Take complex technical concepts and make them usable — content a seller can pick up, understand, and use in a customer conversation without a briefing.

• Surface win/loss signals from the field and turn them into repeatable GTM m
