Senior Director Product Marketing, Azure Cloud and AI Platform

About the Mission

Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees, we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day, we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.

We are currently navigating a defining era in technology: the shift to agentic applications. This platform shift is redefining how enterprises evaluate cloud solutions, how developers build, and how IT secures and operates modern systems at scale. The future platform will be an integrated system of models, tools, data, and runtime systems that reason, act, and continuously improve.

About the Role

As a Senior Director of Product Marketing for the Azure Cloud and AI Platform, you will drive this market transition and establish Azure as the platform of choice for strategic agentic deployments. Operating at the executive layer across Engineering, Product, and Go-to-Market, you will partner with leaders in Commercial Cloud & AI, Security, Data & AI, Industry, and the field to align priorities.

Your primary mission is to define the technical model enterprises use to assess agentic platforms. You will capture the combined value across developer tools, AI, data, infrastructure, security, and operations, translating it into durable market leadership. This involves creating the narrative, proof points, competitive positioning, and technical demos that scale across Microsoft.

You will lead a team of Product Marketing leaders and a cross-functional virtual team, reporting to the Azure Core and Platform General Manager. Success in this role is measured by market leadership (category definition and analyst/customer perception), growth of Azure for strategic workloads, and the ability to drive cross-platform adoption across the end-to-end stack. A core component of your day-to-day will be building and scaling a demo platform and technical demo center of excellence, ensuring these assets are utilized across the field, flagship events, keynotes, and digital surfaces.
