Sr. Product Marketing Manager/Developer Platform API

<h2><strong>Senior Product Marketing Manager — Developer Platform API</strong><br><strong> Team: Search AI Platform | Location: Remote (Global) </strong></h2> <p><strong>The Opportunity</strong><br>Brave is building the independent search infrastructure for the AI era.<br>While others wrap Bing or Google APIs, we own our own global web index. This allows us to offer what Big Tech cannot: Zero-Data-Retention (ZDR) guarantees, unbiased ranking, and total sovereignty.<br>Our Search API is currently powering the next generation of LLMs, RAG pipelines, and agentic frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.). We are looking for a hybrid Product Marketer and Developer Advocate to own the GTM strategy for this platform.<br>You will bridge the gap between our engineering team and the developer market. You will not just market the product; you will demonstrate how to build with it.</p> <p><strong>The Role: Where PMM Meets DevRel</strong><br>This is not a traditional marketing role. We don't need fluffy adjectives; we need technical truth. You will sit at the intersection of Product Strategy and Developer Relations.</p> <p><br><strong>1. Define the Category Narrative (The PMM Side)</strong>● Positioning: Define why an "Independent Index" matters for enterprise AI. Differentiate Brave from "wrapper" APIs and Big Tech incumbents based on quality, freshness, and privacy.<br>● Launch GTM: Own the go-to-market motion for new endpoints, data types (News, Images, Videos), and features. Coordinate across Eng, Product, and Sales.<br>● Sales Enablement: Arm our sales team with high-leverage assets—technical battlecards, ROI frameworks for switching from Bing/Google, and sovereignty case studies for enterprise clients.</p> <p><strong>2. Win the Developer (The DevRel Side)</strong><br>● "Show, Don't Tell": Produce technical content that proves value. Build "Hello World" to "Production" tutorials, interactive notebooks (Colab/Jupyter), and reference architectures for RAG pipelines.<br>● Ecosystem Presence: Represent Brave in the AI engineer community. Ensure we have first-class integrations with frameworks like LangChain, AutoGPT, and Vercel AI SDK.<br>● Docs as Marketing: Treat documentation as our most important landing page. optimize the "Time to First API Call" metric.</p> <p><strong>What You’ll Do Day-to-Day</strong><br>● Write Code: Draft a blog post about our new ranking algorithm in the morning, and fix a Python code snippet in our docs in the afternoon. <br>● Software Distribution: Experience or familiarity with publishing packages to registries (NPM, PyPI), repositories (GitHub), or app stores.<br>● Market Intelligence: Analyze how competitors (Perplexity, Exa, Bing) package their APIs and identify the "wedge" where Brave wins.<br>● Community Engineering: Engage with developers on X, Reddit, and Discord. When a developer asks "What search API should I use for my agent?", you (and the community you build) are there with the answer.<br>● Feedback Loops: Act as "Customer Zero." Test our APIs before they ship and channel harsh, honest developer feedback back to the product team.</p> <p><strong>The DNA We Are Looking For</strong><br>You are likely a former engineer turned marketer, or a PMM who learned to code. You understand that developers hate "marketing," but love solutions.<br>● Native Fluency in AI/Search: You know what RAG is. You understand the difference between lexical and semantic search. You know why context windows matter.<br>● Developer Empathy: You’ve wrestled with bad APIs, poor documentation, and rate limits.<br>● Proven Writing: You can write clear, concise copy for a landing page and technical copy for a whitepaper.<br>● Technical Chops: You are comfortable reading/writing Python or JavaScript. You can fire up a terminal to test a cURL request.</p> <p><strong>Bonus Points For:</strong><br>● Experience at "Developer Cult" companies (e.g., Vercel, Supabase, Stripe, HashiCorp, LangChain).<br>● Experience marketing data products or s ...
