## About this task

This Series B analytics software company for retailers (201–500 employees) is looking for a senior Product Marketing Manager for a monthly bundle of recurring tasks, 10–20 h a month. Interviews that test positioning and uncover needs.

A named list of recurring items keeps the month predictable for both sides. The company sells subscription software, so deadlines follow release and billing cycles.

The team sits in Los Angeles. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (PT).

## What you deliver

- Run 8 customer interviews on the buying process and summarise the themes.

- A named list of items moved to next month, so nothing is lost

- A running log of open questions, reviewed at the start of each week

- A month-end summary with hours used against the cap

## What a month looks like

- Week 1: intake call and a list of what is due this month

- Weeks 2 and 3: items completed in short sessions

- Week 4: month-end summary and the list for next month

**Duration:** 6 months, with a monthly hours cap. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price.

## Tools

Zoom Dovetail

## Who fits

- 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Product Marketing Manager, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Zoom and Dovetail

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

- Experience in a similar industry

## Not included

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- Managing other contractors or employees

- Travel or work at a fixed location

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
