Sr. Mgr, Technical Marketing Engineering
Morrisville, North Carolina, United StatesJob Summary
Are you ready to build and lead NetApp's technical marketing presence? As Senior Manager, Technical Marketing Engineering, you will help build NetApp's center of excellence for technical marketing as part of a leadership team taking on an early-stage team and rapidly growing both its size and its impact.
You will be both a team builder and have the hands-on technical credibility to inspire, measure, and improve the capabilities of world-class Technical Marketing Engineers (TMEs). NetApp TMEs own technical marketing end-to-end for one or more assigned technology areas: defining the technical narrative, value proposition, claims, and competitive story for integrated solutions that solve customer challenges using NetApp products and, where relevant, partner products. As a team leader, you will set the technical and quality bar for the team, and hire new talent that the team needs as it scales.
You will do this working side-by-side with Product Marketers as part of the Integrated Product & Platform Marketing (IPPM) organization's Technical Evangelism & Marketing (TEM) function, and in partnership with Product Management and Engineering teams worldwide. As the senior TME leader based in RTP, you will be the primary point of local leadership and escalation for Product Management and Engineering partners, and you will partner closely with peer TME leaders across the world to keep one consistent technical narrative and operating model across every region, while fully owning the TME charter for your assigned subset of products and solutions.
If you're excited by the challenge of building a world-class technical marketing team, staying hands-on with the technology to lead from the front, and shaping how NetApp shows up technically worldwide, we want to talk to you.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and lead your assigned TME team: hire, onboard, and develop talent, scaling from today's strong team toward a full regional center of excellence.
- Serve as the senior in-region point of contact for RTP-based Product Management and Engineering partners, providing local leadership and time-zone coverage for both your covered products, and in partnership with your peer TME leaders for other products and solutions. Will be required to work in-person in the local NetApp RTP office a majority of the time.
- Own technical marketing end-to-end for multiple assigned technology areas. Own the team that defines the technical narrative, claims, proof of value, and competitive story for integrated solutions, integrated into the overall narrative set by Product Marketing.
- Collaborate with Product Management and Engineering across the product lifecycle to build — and ensure your team builds — expert-level understanding of assigned products and solutions, their place in the NetApp portfolio, and how they solve customer challenges.
- Direct, and personally contribute to, your team's production of consistent, high-quality technical content and enablement: technical reports, whitepapers, reference architectures, blogs, videos, technical talk tracks, demos, and other advanced technical enablement.
- Oversee your team's self-service interactive assets, including demos, sandboxes, and TCO/ROI calculators, built with the latest AI-enabled demo-creation tools and instrumented to capture usage and customer intelligence.
- Ensure your team is visible as trusted technical subject-matter experts, evangelizing NetApp and assigned technologies at conferences, in webinars, on video, and on social media with clear, compelling technical storytelling.
- Synthesize input from customers, field teams, and sales gathered through your team's work as technical SMEs, and channel it to Product Management to inform the roadmap.
- Partner with peer TME leaders across the Americas and EMEA, and with the broader IPPM Technical Evangelism & Marketing (TEM) function, to keep one consistent technical narrative, one content standard, and one operating model across every region.
- Establish and track key performance indicators for your team's coverage and output and drive continuous improvement of deliverables based on data and field feedback.
- Recruit, coach, and retain top technical marketing talent.
- Champion an inclusive, collaborative team culture, and model the ownership and agility NetApp expects of its technical marketing organization as your team's scope and headcount scale quickly.
Job Requirements
- 10+ years of experience in technical marketing or related roles that span technology and marketing, including several years in a people-management or team-lead capacity.
- Proven track record building, scaling, and leading a high-performing technical team from the ground up, including hiring, developing, and managing talent.
- Demonstrated expert-level understanding in one or more enterprise technology areas, as a proof point of the ability to attain — and coach others toward — expert-level understanding of additional technology areas. Existing expertise in NetApp technologies or the data infrastructure market is highly desired but not required.
- Demonstrated ability to craft, and to coach others to craft, technical narratives, value proof, and competitive positioning for integrated solutions.
- Excellent technical writing, communication, and storytelling skills, with a track record of setting and holding a quality bar across a team's content and enablement output.
- Proven experience building and managing demos and showcase environments at scale, including demo catalogs, sandboxes, and self-service experiences; familiarity with modern AI-enabled demo-creation tools is highly desired.
- Strong business acumen and comfort operating as a hands-on player-coach, capable of deep technical knowledge, but passionate about delegating and teaching to develop the same skills in your team.
- Strong cross-functional and cross-regional collaboration skills within a globally distributed team and partner effectively with Product Management, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing leaders across time zones.
- Confident as a public speaker and on-camera presenter, with experience coaching others to present confidently to technical and executive audiences.
- Facility with competitive/alternatives analysis and building data-backed, testable claims.
Education
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).
- Master's degree or MBA is a plus.

Tips for Your Technical Production Manager Job Search
Tailor your resume to production scope
Hiring managers want to see budget authority, crew sizes, and production scale on your resume, not just job duties. Quantify the productions you've overseen and the teams you've coordinated so recruiters can benchmark your experience against their projects.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists technical production manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Highlight cross-department coordination experience
Technical production manager roles sit at the intersection of creative, logistics, and technical teams. Emphasize moments on your resume where you translated production requirements between departments, resolved equipment conflicts, or kept a show on schedule under pressure.
Target postings by production format
Job titles vary significantly by format. Search for live events, broadcast, theatrical, or studio production separately, since each vertical uses different terminology and tools. Matching your terminology to the posting signals you understand that specific production environment.
Prepare a production postmortem for interviews
Interviewers in this field routinely ask you to walk through a past production from planning to close. Prepare a concise account of one complex project, including what went wrong, what you adjusted in real time, and what you'd do differently, before your first round.
Negotiate start dates around production cycles
Many employers hire technical production managers ahead of a season, tour, or major project launch. When negotiating your offer, ask about the production calendar so your start date aligns with onboarding before the high-intensity phase begins, not during it.
Technical Production Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most technical production managers?
The companies hiring the most technical production managers right now include Amazon, Ansera, and Dillard's, with the largest share of openings in Texas, California, and Washington, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is strongest in entertainment hubs, large venue operators, and broadcast media organizations.
How many technical production manager jobs are remote?
About 46% of technical production manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most production environments. The roles most likely to allow remote work involve pre-production planning, vendor coordination, and post-production workflow oversight rather than on-site technical direction.
How do you become a technical production manager?
Most technical production managers start in a hands-on technical role such as audio engineer, lighting technician, or stage crew, then move into production coordination before advancing to management. Building experience across multiple production formats, learning budget management, and demonstrating the ability to lead and schedule crews are the key steps that lead to a manager-level title.
Can you get hired as a technical production manager with little experience?
Entry-level technical production manager roles do exist, particularly at smaller venues, regional theater companies, and corporate event firms where one person covers both technical and logistical duties. Candidates with hands-on crew experience, familiarity with AV and staging equipment, and demonstrated ability to manage a production timeline from load-in to strike are competitive even without a lengthy management history.
What does the technical production manager interview process look like?
The process typically starts with a phone screen focused on your production background and specific formats you've worked in, followed by a panel interview with operations and creative leadership. Expect scenario-based questions about how you handle day-of technical failures, crew conflicts, or last-minute rider changes. Some employers ask for a portfolio review or a walk-through of a past production you managed.
Where can I find and apply to technical production manager jobs?
You can find and apply to technical production manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search for roles that fit your production background and experience level, then apply directly to each listing that matches what you're looking for.
