The two brands serve fundamentally different buyer personas and engagement models: Phantom targets end-user researchers and engineers; Forza Silicon targets camera OEMs, defense/space integrators, and semiconductor design customers.

Responsibilities

• Develop unified and brand-specific marketing strategies aligned with business objectives, enhancing brand visibility and driving growth.
• Collaborate with Sales, Product Management, and BU leadership to set data-driven marketing direction for products, services, and solutions.

• Collaborate with Sales, Product Management, and technical resources to refine value proposition messaging across all channels.

• Monitor marketing spend and report on KPIs (cost per lead, cost per opportunity, marketing ROI) with full budget transparency; analyze data from Google Analytics/Ahrefs to evaluate performance and inform optimization.
• Own the brand architecture across the VRI portfolio — ensure clear, consistent brand identity for Phantom and Forza Silicon.
• Maintain brand guidelines including visual identity, tone, and messaging frameworks appropriate to each brand's distinct audience.
• Develop sales enablement tools that enhance solution selling and empower global sales teams to achieve revenue targets.
• Execute marketing programs targeting the installed base to drive upsell, cross-sell, and service attach rates across the customer lifecycle.
• Partner with Sales and Service teams to identify expansion opportunities, build renewal and retention campaigns, and develop customer success content.
