The results reflect this approach: a 100% production deployment success rate for our customers and one of the few enterprise AI companies to run a profitable business.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

As a Product Marketing Manager, you will own how Distyl shows up in the market crafting the narrative, enabling our sales team, and building the foundational content that positions Distyl as a leader in enterprise AI for complex customer experience.

You will develop positioning and messaging tailored by vertical, create sales enablement materials that AEs can run independently, and build compelling proof points including case studies, ROI frameworks, and competitive positioning. You will work closely with founders and sales leadership to translate what is resonating in real customer conversations into scalable, repeatable assets that accelerate deal cycles and strengthen Distyl’s market presence.

This role sits at the intersection of product, sales, and go-to-market strategy. You will collaborate closely with Sales, Engineering, and Leadership to ensure Distyl’s capabilities are clearly articulated to enterprise buyers and differentiated in a rapidly evolving AI landscape.

This is a hands-on role for a strong writer and operator who can produce polished content themselves not just brief agencies or manage freelancers. You thrive in early-stage environments, enjoy building systems and narratives from scratch, and are comfortable working closely with sales teams rather than operating in a siloed marketing function.

WHO YOU ARE

• Experience marketing to enterprise buyers in regulated industries (financial services, insurance, healthcare a strong plus)
• Comfortable with technical products and can translate complex capabilities into business value
• Able to operate independently while collaborating closely with founders and cross-functional teams
• Strong plus if you have experience building or specific ideas for AI-Native Product Marketing
