Director of Product Marketing

Working at RippleMatch:

At RippleMatch, we are building the recruitment automation platform changing how Gen Z finds work. The current status quo of finding a first job is broken: Traditional career services and job boards with millions of postings aren't very helpful, and figuring out where to begin your career is a difficult and overwhelming decision. It's also not a fair contest. For many Gen Z candidates, opportunity is limited based on where they attend school and their personal networks.

By replacing job boards with matching and automation, RippleMatch eliminates the most time-intensive parts of the recruitment process for both employers and job seekers. Leading employers such as Amazon, eBay, and Teach For America leverage RippleMatch to build diverse, high-performing teams and Gen Z job seekers across the country trust RippleMatch to launch and grow their careers.

Since launching RippleMatch from a college dorm room in 2016, we've raised $79 million in venture funding (most recently, our $45m Series B), helped tens of thousands of users find jobs, expanded to 1,500+ colleges & universities, and brought on hundreds of leading employers as customers. Our tight-knit team of 130+ (& growing!) talented people work hard, celebrate wins, and care deeply about changing the way finding a job works.

The Role:

We are looking for an exceptional product marketing leader to build our go-to-market strategy, help us win on sales, and shape the future of our product.

What You’ll Do:

As our Director of Product Marketing, you will build out a world-class product marketing infrastructure to ensure the success of our product in the market. Working with our Sales, Account Management, Marketing, and Customer Success teams, you will transform our messaging of our entire customer journey to attract customers to our platform. This will involve developing stories that resonate with our buyers and users to position our product as the leader in the early-career recruitment space. You will work cross-functionally to ensure we are going to market with the best strategies, pricing, and product packages. In addition to developing our product marketing team, you will establish an enablement function that can consistently train and update our client-facing reps to effectively share our product story!

Who You Are: 

• An exceptional product thinker with 3+ years of managing a Product Marketing team
• Deep customer empathy and understanding
• Enterprise SaaS sales and marketing DNA
• People first mentality; excellent people management skills
• Exceptional communication skills
• Data and results driven mentality
• Strong work ethic and high productivity

Culture & Perks:

At RippleMatch, we understand that our success stems from the people we have on board, which is why we invest heavily in our team’s well-being and growth. We offer a full slate of perks including equity, paid vacation, a pre-tax commuter program, discounted Citi Bike and Class Pass memberships, and — our favorite thing — comprehensive FREE healthcare benefits. We work hard to foster a culture of constant self-improvement, true ownership, and positivity. At our core, we are a tight-knit team that works hard, celebrates wins, and cares deeply about changing the way finding a job works. We are going to fundamentally transform the hiring landscape and won’t settle for anything less.

RippleMatch is a remote-first company. We believe in helping to shape the future of work and creating accessibility to a great working environment for all, regardless of location.  Our physical office is conveniently located near Union Square in New York City and all RippleMatch team members are encouraged to work remotely or come into the office as much as they want or not at all. To ensure the health and safety of our team, RippleMatch does require proof of vaccination for all team members.

We believe in maintaining a culture that can cut across distance to suit our employees who choose to be remote as well as those who prefer to come in office. We host monthly virtual events as well as monthly in-person events, team-wide virtual activities every month like Wellness Challenges, and a time to hear from our founders regularly regardless of location. Creating strong bonds between RippleMatch team members means a lot to us, and while we know that this can be done remotely, we also invest heavily in creating opportunities to make sure all employees are able to bond with one another in-person. At this time, we require some travel (sponsored by RM!) for our company retreats, on-site team building, and other fun in-person events. While not required, we also highly recommend in-person onboarding, where you’ll be able to meet and bond with others in the office!

RippleMatch is a proud equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, national origin, age, protected veteran or disabled status, or genetic information.
