As a Senior Product Marketing Manager focused on Core Weave SUNK (Slurm on Kubernetes), you will be responsible for how Core Weave positions and brings to market its research and training cluster offering for the most demanding AI workloads. SUNK is a core product within the Core Weave platform, designed to support large-scale, long-running training jobs where reliability, predictability, and operational visibility are as critical as performance.

In this role, you will develop clear, differentiated positioning and messaging that presents SUNK as the best research cluster for AI training—a researcher-first system that preserves the Slurm workflows teams rely on while reducing the complexity of operating and maintaining large training environments. You will translate SUNK’s capabilities, including high-performance and topology-aware scheduling, automated cluster health management through Mission Control, and deep operational visibility, into narratives that resonate with AI research leaders, platform teams, and technical buyers.

You will operate independently within a defined product scope, partnering closely with product management and engineering to bring new SUNK capabilities to market. This includes shaping launch narratives, incorporating customer and competitive insight into messaging, and ensuring GTM assets reflect how research clusters are evaluated, deployed, and operated in practice. You will also collaborate with sales, solutions architects, and marketing partners to scale consistent, outcome-oriented messaging across customer-facing motions.

Success in this role requires strong technical fluency, sound judgment, and a bias toward execution. You will seek out insight from real research deployments, identify gaps in how SUNK is understood in the market, and iterate on positioning over time to improve clarity and effectiveness. You will use data and feedback to demonstrate how your work contributes to product adoption, deal progress, and competitive differentiation within the Core Weave platform.

This role offers the opportunity to have a meaningful impact on how Core Weave’s research and training capabilities are understood and adopted, helping research teams run their most critical training workloads with greater confidence and predictability.
