Overview
We’re looking for a strategic, data-driven, and builder-minded marketing leader to drive growth across APAC — not only through pipeline and revenue, but by accelerating developer community engagement and product adoption at scale.
As a marketing key leader in our go-to-market organization, you will own the full regional marketing strategy across demand generation, developer community, and adoption. This role sits at the intersection of Revenue, Product, and Developer Relations — responsible for building a modern, full-funnel engine that drives awareness, activates developers, influences buyers, and ultimately converts to pipeline, revenue, and long-term product usage.
If you are a regional marketing leader who knows how to balance revenue outcomes with developer love — and can scale both — this is the role for you.
Responsibilities
- Own the APAC regional marketing strategy — developing and executing integrated plans that drive pipeline, revenue, developer adoption, and community growth
- Partner closely with Revenue to deliver against pipeline and revenue targets, while also aligning to product adoption and usage goals
- Build and scale a full-funnel marketing engine across:
- Demand generation (pipeline creation and acceleration)
- Developer community (engagement, advocacy, and growth)
- Product adoption (activation, education, and expansion)
- Design and execute innovative, multi-channel campaigns that drive:
MQLs and sourced pipeline
Developer acquisition and engagement
Product trial, activation, and ongoing usage
- Lead high-impact regional programs and moments (GitHub-led, partner, and third-party events) that connect developers, technical decision makers, and executive buyers
- Partner with Developer Relations and Product Marketing to bring the developer voice into regional programming and ensure content resonates across technical and business audiences
- Build and scale developer-first programs (workshops, community events, user groups, hands-on experiences) that drive real product usage and learning
- Own performance measurement across the funnel — from awareness → engagement → pipeline → adoption — continuously optimizing based on data and insights
- Lead and empower a high-performing regional team to deliver predictable pipeline while also scaling community and adoption programs
- Partner with SDR and Sales teams to ensure strong lead quality, clear SLAs, and tight feedback loops — while also evolving beyond leads to product-led and community-driven growth motions
- Drive strong internal storytelling — connecting marketing efforts to pipeline, revenue, product usage, and customer impact
