  • Contribute to product marketing initiatives and special projects such as go-to-market campaigns, launch documentation, and feature tutorials.
  • Attend industry conferences and community events to represent Slide’s BCDR offerings and capture voice-of-partner insights.
  • Stay current on product developments, industry trends, and competitive landscape in the BCDR space.
  • Provide actionable feedback to Product Management and Engineering teams based on field interactions.

  • Familiarity with Windows Server, VMware, Hyper-V, networking (TCP/IP, DNS, VPN), and cloud platforms.
  • Excellent presentation skills with the ability to explain complex concepts to both technical and executive-level audiences.
  • Experience working with MSPs or in the managed services industry.

  • Willingness to travel up to 25% for partner meetings, events, and conferences.
