The Opportunity
We're looking for a Director of Demand Generation to build and scale demand for a developer-first product. This role owns pipeline and revenue growth while respecting how developers actually discover, evaluate, and adopt tools — through education, community, and real technical value.
Hands-on leadership with direct impact on how developers find, trust, and ultimately bring CircleCI into their organizations.
What You'll Do
Demand Strategy & Leadership
- Own demand generation strategy across self-serve and sales-assisted funnels
- Lead and grow a high-performing demand gen team (internal and contractor)
- Partner with Sales and RevOps on ICP definition, segmentation, pipeline targets, and handoff design
Developer-Centric Campaigns
- Build multi-channel programs for technical audiences: paid search, paid social, developer communities, technical content, webinars, events, and partner-driven initiatives
- Design and execute ABM programs targeting mid-market and enterprise accounts, with tailored campaigns for key personas and close coordination with SDRs and AEs
- Own lifecycle programs that drive activation, retention, and expansion — connecting product usage signals to marketing plays across the full customer journey
Analytics, Attribution & Optimization
- Own pipeline, revenue, and funnel reporting across all motions
- Measure and optimize CAC, CPL, pipeline velocity, and ROI through continuous experimentation
- Partner with RevOps to ensure clean data, accurate attribution, and scalable systems
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner closely with SEO, Website, and Social teams to align on integrated programs and ensure demand gen motions are connected across the full digital footprint
- Work closely with Product, Sales, and Customer teams to support launches, GTM motions, and smooth handoffs across self-serve, SDR, and Sales workflows
What We're Looking For
- 8–12+ years of B2B marketing experience with demonstrated ownership of demand generation strategy and execution
- Background in developer tools, cloud infrastructure, or a technical platform — you understand how developers evaluate and adopt products
- Proven track record driving pipeline and revenue across PLG and hybrid GTM models, with a strong grasp of how technical audiences move from self-serve adoption to paid commercial and enterprise
- Experience managing the handoff between self-serve and sales-assisted motions — you've designed the qualification logic, not just inherited it
- Deep understanding of the customer journey, lifecycle marketing, and how to use data to drive decisions
- Hands-on experience with tools like HubSpot, Clay, Gong, Claude, 6sense, Linear
You Might Be a Fit If…
- You've run demand gen at a developer-centric company and have a clear point of view on what works for that audience — and what doesn't
- You've owned both a PLG funnel and a sales-assisted pipeline program at the same company and understand the tension between them
- When signups go flat, your first question is where the traffic problem is — not what email to send
- Your direct reports have grown because of how you developed them
