About Zscaler

Zscaler accelerates digital transformation to ensure our customers can be more agile, efficient, resilient, and secure. As an AI-forward enterprise, we are constantly pushing the envelope, leveraging the world’s largest security data lake to power our cloud-native Zero Trust Exchange platform. This innovation protects our customers from cyberattacks and data loss by securely connecting users, devices, and applications in any location.

Here, impact in your role matters more than title and trust is built on results. We say, impact over activity. We seek innovators who actively use AI to amplify their impact and who thrive in an environment where we leverage intelligent systems to stay ahead of evolving threats. We believe in transparency and value constructive, honest debate—we’re focused on getting to the best ideas, faster. We build high-performing teams that can make an impact quickly and with high quality. To do this, we are building a culture of execution centered on customer obsession, collaboration, ownership, and accountability.

We value high-impact, high-accountability with a sense of urgency where you’re enabled to do your best work and embrace your potential. If you’re driven by purpose, thrive on solving complex challenges, and want to be part of the team that’s helping to secure the AI age, we invite you to bring your talents to Zscaler and help shape the future of cybersecurity.

We are looking for a Sr. Product Marketing Manager to join our Marketing department on-site in San Jose, reporting to the Sr. Director, Product Marketing - Marketing - ZT Networking. As a Sr. Product Marketing Manager responsible for Zscaler’s Zero Trust Cloud, you will be involved with development and execution of go-to-market plans for Zscaler’s solutions to connect and secure hybrid cloud workloads. We are looking for an extremely motivated team player to deliver compelling messaging that addresses real customer use cases and challenges as we accelerate the adoption of the Zscaler platform to secure workloads.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Deep technical expertise in Cloud Networking — you are the person others turn to when they need a concept explained clearly or a slide deck that actually lands
• Proven ability to translate complex technical differentiators into compelling, simple narratives — whether in a blog, a pitch deck, or a keynote
• Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills — you write with precision, speak with confidence, and design slides with intent
• Hands-on familiarity with Cloud Service Provider (CSP) security tools and ecosystems — AWS, Azure, and GCP
• Deep understanding of key buyer personas including Network Security Engineers, Cloud Architects, Security Architects, and SecOps Managers

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You are a problem-solver. You seek out challenges because you are energized by finding solutions, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You operate with urgency. You understand that in a high-growth environment, speed and quality are not mutually exclusive. You have a relentless focus on execution and a bias for action, delivering high-impact results quickly to win for the customer and the team.
• You are resilient and adaptable. You view change as an opportunity and setbacks as temporary. You maintain composure and focus in high-pressure situations, guiding yourself and your team through complexity with a steady, positive hand.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

• Deep technical expertise in Cloud Networking — you are the person others turn to when they need a concept explained clearly or a slide deck that actually land
• Proven ability to translate complex technical differentiators into compelling, simple narratives — whether in a blog, a pitch deck, or a keynote

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Minimum 5 years of experience in product marketing, technical marketing or solution engineer for Cloud or Cybersecurity products
• BS/MS degree or equivalent in a STEM field
• Demonstrated success in positioning and launching differentiated products in competitive markets
