Senior Product Marketing Manager, Privacy and Data Security

About the Role

As the founding Senior Product Marketing Manager for Privacy and Data Security, you will play a central role in advancing Verkada’s core mission to protect people and places in a privacy-sensitive way by defining and driving our global privacy and data security narrative. These elements are never afterthoughts at Verkada; they are foundational to how we design our technology and a core differentiator that enables us to earn the trust of – and successfully sell to – some of the world’s largest organizations.

In this role, you will lead the charge in proactively establishing Verkada as the undisputed leader in how a cloud-first physical security company should approach privacy and data security. You will go incredibly deep into the weeds of our technical architecture, becoming a subject matter expert who can be strategically deployed to create customer-facing collateral, go toe-to-toe with technical experts and executive buyers, and evangelize our privacy and security posture across the entire go-to-market engine.

This role is deeply cross-functional and requires you to bring together stakeholders across the Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, and Communications teams. You will also partner closely with Verkada’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and Chief Privacy Officer. This role will report into our Director of Product Marketing.

We are committed to a thriving in-office culture. This role requires that you be on-site at our HQ in San Mateo, CA 5 days a week.

What You'll Do

• Hone Verkada’s privacy and security narrative: Clearly articulate how Verkada differentiates itself, our fundamental approach to data protection, and how these practices deliver value to our customers. Refine and adapt our messaging and positioning strategies in response to product developments, competitor movements, and public sentiment.
• Drive proactive privacy thought leadership and asset creation: Author, advise on, and elevate high-impact collateral – including technical whitepapers, one-pagers, blogs, videos, and sales decks – to position Verkada as the definitive authority in the space. Take complete ownership of the Verkada Trust Hub webpage, significantly expanding its depth to turn it into a comprehensive, best-in-class destination for public transparency.
• Serve as a cross-functional subject matter expert: Act as a definitive expert on data privacy across our product portfolio. Unite Marketing, Sales, and Product teams to drive commercial results, lead Executive Briefing Center (EBC) sessions, and directly empower our field organization to navigate complex technical privacy evaluations.
• Enable the go-to-market engine: Partner closely with Sales, Demand Generation, Creative, and Channel Marketing teams to accelerate pipeline growth. Translate complex hardware capabilities and technical privacy frameworks into high-impact outbound marketing assets and field collateral that directly improve win rates.
