Job Description
The Elevator Pitch: Why will you enjoy this new opportunity?
As a member of the Tanzu Technical Marketing team you will help drive external and internal enablement for VMware's Modern Applications and Management Business Group. You will get the opportunity to work with Kubernetes and all the new technologies that make it production-ready such as lifecycle management, observability, business-continuity, and app/dev usage that all fold into the Tanzu family of products. As a subject-matter expert you will create content, share your knowledge with key stakeholders, and present at internal, partner-led, and industry-wide events.
We need someone who will enable the internal technical sales teams and external audiences on new Tanzu Kubernetes Platform releases which uses Kubernetes as the underlying technology. The Tanzu portfolio stretches beyond the use of VMware vSphere as VMware transforms into a company focused on delivering multi-cloud solutions. Experience working with public cloud providers helps demonstrate Tanzu's multi-cloud capability. The bedrock of datacenter infrastructure across compute, network, storage, and management, including both consumption and operations tasks are still part of this role.

As a technical thought-leader and expert:

Develop educational content with other business units who are responsible for hands-on-labs and tools used to provide trial access to Tanzu products.
You will be a presenter at events and webinars to share your knowledge.

Work across groups and establish relationships with Product Management and Product Marketing counterparts to determine the type of content that needs to be developed.
Stay committed to learning about Kubernetes and the vast array of integrations on the market to see how Tanzu can benefit.
Write engaging blog posts that share new improvements or highlight features on Tanzu products.
Produce entertaining videos that demonstrate and showcase Tanzu technologies.
Build presentations that will be used by the global salesforce to talk about Tanzu products to customers around the globe.
The knowledge and skills you have will translate into presenting Tanzu solutions at VMware events such as VMUG and VMworld, but also extends to partner-led and industry-related events that will require traveling up to 10%.
Your mission will be to connect with customers and the technical sales field, understand their challenges, and communicate a vision for how Tanzu products can address those challenges.
What is the leadership like for this role? What is the structure and culture of the team like?
You will be working with a globally dispersed team of highly-motivated engineers and architects. The Tanzu Technical Marketing team creates content that is delivered to tens of thousands of practitioners. You will work with your manager to determine the priority of content to be delivered that achieves the most impact.
VMware and the Tanzu Technical Marketing management team work hard towards maintaining a culture of true collaboration, thriving towards success together as a team, enabling career growth to fulfill short- and long-term career ambitions.
