About The Position

We’re a startup with big ambitions: to make estate planning modern, visual, and intelligent. Vanilla is the first AI-powered estate advisory platform, built by advisors, planners, and attorneys to transform how wealth is transferred across generations. Our technology unifies scenario modeling, client visualization, and document creation into one seamless, digital experience. Our team brings together diverse subject matter expertise across estate planning, wealth management, and scaling SaaS startups. We’re distributed across the U.S., with a mix of fully remote and hybrid roles, and we embrace flexibility while staying closely connected. At Vanilla, you’ll join curious builders and problem-solvers who thrive on speed, autonomy, and impact. Here, you won’t just join a company, you’ll help create it. If you’re excited to tackle hard problems, move quickly, and see your work shape both an industry and a growing startup, we’d love to meet you. We’re looking for a Senior Product Marketing Manager to own how our products are positioned, launched, and adopted in the market. You’ll sit at the intersection of Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing—shaping our narrative, enabling revenue teams, and ensuring we build and sell what customers truly need. This is a highly visible role with significant ownership, combining strategic leadership with hands-on execution in a lean, collaborative environment, and includes direct management and mentorship of a product marketing team member.
