In this role, you won't just be managing traditional marketing campaigns. You will champion a solution-selling approach, bridging the gap between Intel's cutting-edge technologies (including AI accelerators, next-gen data centers, and client solutions) and our partners' high-performance cloud/AI platforms. Your mission will be to translate raw hardware and software capabilities into high-value, workload-optimized business solutions that solve real-world customer challenges in the generative AI and accelerated computing space.

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic Co-Marketing Leadership • Set the Vision: Develop and execute comprehensive, full-year co-marketing strategies that align Intel's top AI and cloud priorities with our partners' business goals across global, regional, and country levels.

• Drive the Narrative: Position Intel as the preferred engine behind modern cloud innovation, Neocloud scaling, and AI ISV software stacks through compelling joint value propositions.

High-Impact Partner Engagement • Build Strong Alliances: Cultivate and manage deep relationships with Neocloud and AI ISV marketing organizations, engaging confidently with stakeholders from technical leads to senior leadership.

• Bridge the Gap: Act as the primary liaison between partner teams and Intel's regional partner marketing managers to ensure flawless global alignment.

End-to-End Campaign Mastery • Execute with Excellence: Lead the end-to-end project management of co-marketing campaigns-from creative concept and media planning to final execution focused on LLM workloads and AI deployments.

• Measure What Matters: Own the budget, track KPIs, and deliver rigorous ROI analyses to prove the business impact of every campaign.

Cross-Functional Collaboration • Orchestrate Internal Teams: Partner closely with Global Field Sales, Business Units, and country-level teams to ensure joint campaigns are integrated and amplified across all channels.

• Program Governance and Enablement

• Manage the Plan of Record (POR): Maintain and update the account's POR, managing co-marketing approvals with precision.

• Enable Partners: Educate and train partners on program enhancements, guidelines, and toolsets to maximize program participation and compliance.

• Brand Integrity: Evaluate partner executions to ensure seamless Intel branding integration and adherence to program guidelines.

Executive Communication • Tell the Story: Translate complex campaign data into compelling narratives. Prepare and deliver high-quality presentations for Quarterly Marketing Reviews (QMRs) and executive-level briefings.

Thriving in Ambiguity • A strategic thinker with a demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguous environments, drive clarity, and deliver highly measurable marketing results in fast-moving technology sectors.

Qualifications: This position is not eligible for Intel immigration sponsorship.

Minimum Qualifications: • Education: Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business Administration, Communications, or a related field.

• Cloud and Ecosystem Marketing Expertise: 6+ years of dedicated cloud marketing, partner marketing, or alliance marketing experience, with a strong preference for backgrounds working directly with or within Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), Neoclouds, or AI/ML-focused SaaS/Enterprise Software partners.

• Customer-Facing Experience: 3+ years of experience in a customer-facing role within a Global Sales or Global Marketing organization, with a proven track record of managing high-value relationships.

• Project and Vendor Management: Proven experience managing multiple complex workstreams across diverse internal teams and external partners, including marketing agencies, tech platforms, and media vendors.

Preferred Qualifications: • AI and Neocloud Expertise: Deep familiarity with the Neocloud ecosystem, LLM deployment architectures, AI frameworks, and the broader AI ISV landscape.

• Intel and Hardware Knowledge: A strong understanding of Intel's AI solutions, product portfolios, data center technologies, and broader B2B tech landscape.

• Collaborative Leadership: Exceptional cross-functional leadership and influencing skills, with a genuine passion for collaborating across a highly matrixed global organization.

• Polished Communication: Elite customer engagement, relationship management, and presentation skills-comfortable speaking the language of both AI engineers/data scientists and senior executives.

• Solution Selling Mindset: Experience applying solution selling methodologies to B2B marketing. Proven ability to translate complex technical specifications (like GPU/accelerator performance and LLM inference throughput) into customer-centric business value propositions and joint solution architectures.

• Vertical Industry Marketing: Experience designing and executing marketing campaigns tailored to specific industry verticals (e.g., Financial Services, Healthcare, Retail, Manufacturing, or Public Sector) utilizing AI and cloud infrastructure to solve unique sector-specific challenges.

Why Join Intel? At Intel, we are game-changers, boundary-pushers, and innovators. In this role, you will have a front-row seat to the future of cloud computing and the autonomy to build marketing campaigns that reach millions of businesses worldwide.
