  • Bias for Action: Possesses a "gets stuff done" attitude, operates with urgency, and is able to rapidly connect market events with internal ActiveState initiatives to seize opportunities.
  • Communication Skills: Strong brand voice and exceptional ability to write quickly, creatively, and deliver high-quality, impactful content on deadline.
  • Technical Acumen: Ability to rapidly grasp and communicate complex technical concepts (security, developer products) to external non-technical and technical media/analyst audiences.
  • Tools: Firsthand experience with PR/AR management tools and managing a company-wide communications calendar is required.
  • Domain Expertise: Domain expertise in security and developer products is a significant plus.
