What You'll Do

As our Customer & Competitive Insights Lead, you'll be responsible for: ### Analyzing the Market & Competitive Landscape

• Conduct deep research into competitor offerings, public roadmaps, documentation, customer reviews, analyst reports, and news updates to develop an evolving competitive intelligence library.
• Track trends in the HR tech space, with a focus on mentoring, employee engagement, ERG management, and adjacent industries, translating them into implications for our strategy.
• Collaborate with Sales and Marketing to surface competitive pressures, competitive traps, and develop effective counterplays.
• Identify differentiation opportunities that improve win rates and influence roadmap decisions, pricing, and positioning.

### Engaging with Customers & Internal Teams

• Build structured programs to collect feedback from customer sponsors and end-users, supplementing the already strong feedback loop from admins and CS-managed accounts.
• Conduct interviews, surveys, and discovery sessions with enterprise buyers and participants to gather actionable insights.
• Participate in and review customer calls and sales opportunities to hear direct customer and prospect feedback.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Engineering to ensure customer insights inform roadmap decisions and feature prioritization.

### Partnering Across Go-To-Market Teams

• Partner with Product Marketing to translate intelligence into sales enablement materials, battlecards, objection-handling guides, and strategic messaging.
• Help Customer Success understand what “value” looks like to various personas and provide insights and stories to allow CS to better support customers through best practices.

Who You Are

* You bring 3–5 years of experience in product marketing, customer research, competitive intelligence, or a similar strategy-focused role within B2B SaaS, ideally within HR Tech.

• You're naturally curious and resourceful, able to dig through public data, analyze patterns, and connect dots others miss.
• You're a strong communicator—comfortable presenting insights to Sales, Product, and Executive teams—and you know how to simplify complexity into action.
• You thrive in cross-functional environments and enjoy working at the intersection of Product, Sales, and Customer Success.
• You have a bias for action and are excited to build a program from scratch, not just operate one that already exists.

What's In It for You?

* Base Compensation: $80 - 120k

• Company bonus opportunities
• Health, dental, and vision plans
• 12 paid company holidays, generous vacation time, and sick/mental health days
