About Aptible

Our Mission and Vision

At Aptible, we envision a world where developers achieve more with less infrastructure. We’re building the platform that empowers developers at companies of all stages of development to move beyond the traditional method of managing infrastructure—DIY with expert infrastructure and platform engineers on AWS, GCP, or Azure. We’ve done this through our secure, compliant, reliable, and scalable Platform as a Service that’s been used by thousand of developers, hundreds of companies, and dozens of publicly traded/unicorn companies since 2013. As we move forward, we’re doubling down on making it easy to get started with Aptible for even seed stage companies while also increasing support for advanced or bespoke use cases that enterprises require.

Our Team

Aptible describes its commitment to remote work as 'Remote Forever,' because we’ve been remote since we were founded in 2013. We've always invested heavily in company culture, perhaps more so than any team of our size. Employees often highlight our team's "thoughtfulness, energy, and grit" and our relentless pursuit of improvement.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

We deeply understand the value of bringing together a team with different perspectives, educational backgrounds, and life experiences, and we prioritize diversity within our team. We encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply.

About This Role

Overview

We’re looking for a creative, prolific Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager to drive product launches and enable the GTM Team at Aptible.

Outcomes

First 3 Months

  • Working closely with our COO, you’ll inherit and take ownership of our foundational product marketing content (e.g. product messaging house, persona docs, etc.) and expand them with buyer journey mapping, sales training and collateral, and anything else you think we’ll need. You’ll iterate on these as we learn more from customer/prospect calls or launch new features from our roadmap.
  • While laying the product marketing foundations, you’ll become the hands on driver for writing and iterating on marketing messaging, quickly implementing new ideas for website improvements, landing pages, feature pages, and ensuring our website is constantly improving.
  • Working with our Head of Product, you’ll inherit our product launch process, including changelog updates, customer/prospect emails, docs updates, and other public announcements.
  • You’ll create product collateral we need across customer case studies, sales conversations, email copy, conferences materials, social posts — everything an early, ambitious product needs.

First 6 Months

  • You’ll lead on pricing research and iteration.
  • You’ll lead on competitive research.
  • You’ll help train our entire team on product, customers, competitors, and market.
  • You’ll lead on sales enablement, helping to figure out how we establish a repeatable sales process.

First 12-18 Months

  • You’ll help grow the Marketing and Sales Teams, as needed, to accelerate product content creation and scale acquisition.

You Should Apply If (Must-Haves):

  • You have 5+ years of experience as a Technical Product Marketer, ideally in the PaaS / Developer Tools space.
  • You have a strong portfolio of technical product marketing content, targeted to engineers and engineering leaders, ideally across mediums (e.g. both written and video). This would include websites heroes and homepages, product pages, pricing pages, and customer content.
  • You have experience interviewing and distilling both product and marketing learnings from customers.
  • You have strong opinions about the right and wrong ways to do technical product marketing for developers, and experience successfully implementing these strategies. You almost definitely have followed thought leaders (and either love or disagree with them) such as April Dunford, Martina Lauchengco, or the team at Fletch PMM (for examples). Despite your strong opinions, you figure out how to take what you know works best and adapt it to the needs of your team/product and the views of the product and engineering teams you are working with.
  • You have deployed software to the cloud before, and can use PaaS tools like Heroku (or Aptible) to do so to better understand the product, the customer experience, and to create technical content about the product.

You Should Apply If (Nice-to-Haves):

  • You have experience as a Software Engineer.
  • You have been the first Technical Product Marketer for a technical product focused on market expansion.
  • You can create designs for website pages, sales collateral, sales decks, etc. based on existing design kits.

Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in Aptible’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
