JOB SUMMARY
The Senior Marketing Manager for Connect operates as a “mini-CMO” for the BU — the single marketing leader accountable for translating Connect strategy into pipeline, brand, and growth. Connect is Argano’s data, integration, analytics, and cloud-platforms business, spanning Databricks, Boomi, Informatica, Tableau, Microsoft Fabric, AWS, and other publishers. The role owns BU marketing strategy, product-marketing messaging and positioning, campaign architecture, and — in close partnership with the Connect Commercial Lead — funnel velocity and mechanics. It orchestrates Argano’s shared services (Demand, Events, Content, Brand) to execute, partners with Value Creation to launch solutions, and works with Alliances to unlock publisher co-marketing and organic growth.
RESPONSIBILITIES
BU Marketing Strategy & Product Marketing
- Own the annual and quarterly Connect marketing plan; align spend across paid, events, content, and alliances to BU revenue and pipeline targets.

Campaign Strategy & Funnel Mechanics
- Design integrated, multi-touch campaigns spanning audience, offer, channel, and sales plays.

Demand CoE — Campaigns, Sales Collateral & Events
- Partner with Demand Generation to scope, brief, and launch nurture, paid, ABM, webinars, and field programs in HubSpot and Salesforce.
- Commission Connect sales collateral with Content/Brand shared services — pitch decks, one-pagers, battlecards, case studies, ROI tools — and enable sellers with talk tracks and follow-up sequences.
- Define the Connect event strategy and partner with the Events shared services team to execute publisher conferences, executive roundtables, and field events; represent Connect at flagship publisher events (Databricks Data + AI Summit, Informatica World, Boomi World, Microsoft Ignite/Build, AWS re:Invent, Tableau Conference).
Solution Launch — Partnering with Value Creation
- Codify Connect solutions into market-ready assets with Value Creation: positioning, naming, messaging, collateral, and demand plays.
- Lead solution GTM launches — sequencing, sales enablement, field activation, analyst/publisher briefings, demand kick-off.
- Feed market signals (win/loss, objections, publisher roadmaps) back into Value Creation to sharpen the offering portfolio.
Publisher & Alliance Marketing
- Own the Connect publisher marketing plan across Databricks, Boomi, Informatica, Tableau, Microsoft Fabric, AWS, and others.
- Partner with Alliances to secure and execute publisher-funded campaigns, MDF programs, and joint GTM motions; build relationships with publisher marketing counterparts.

Organic Growth & Brand

- Build a content engine that establishes Connect’s point of view on data, integration, analytics, AI, and modern cloud platforms.
- Protect Argano brand standards while carrying the distinctive Connect point of view across all communications.

- Product-marketing experience: messaging frameworks, positioning, personas, and launch plans landed with Sales and the field.
- Proven success building integrated demand programs and owning funnel analytics — conversion, velocity, attribution — in partnership with sales leadership.
- Experience with publisher/alliance co-marketing and MDF execution; experience supporting solution launches end-to-end.
