## About the role

Exa is selling a new category of infrastructure to technical buyers who have never bought it before. That means our sellers have to explain retrieval quality, agent architectures, and why the search layer matters, then handle objections from engineers. Right now the best version of that pitch lives in a few people's heads.

## What they're looking for

- 4+ years in product marketing, sales enablement, or a hybrid of the two at a B2B technology company selling to technical buyers
- Deep craft evidence: a pitch, deck, or battlecard set you personally built that sellers adopted, and the story of how you got them to adopt it
- Credibility with a developer audience. You do not need to write production code, but you need to hold your own on APIs, retrieval, and agent architectures, and sellers need to trust your technical understanding
- Experience building competitive positioning from real win/loss data rather than feature grids
- A track record running onboarding or certification for a sales team, with evidence it changed ramp time
- Excellent writing and live presentation skills. You will teach, not just document
