Clever is building out our AI strategy and needs a contract Product Marketing Manager to up-level our competitive intelligence program and stand up an external beta. This is an analyst/researcher role, not a campaign or launch position: the core of the job is structured interviewing, competitive research, and synthesis into a clear point of view that Product, Engineering, and Marketing leadership can act on. You'll work in lock-step with Product and Engineering as they define external use cases for the platform, and your output becomes the foundation for Clever's 2027 go-to-market in this space.
ENGAGEMENT DETAILS:
This is a temporary role best suited for someone who can manage their time independently while collaborating closely with established teams.
Contract Dates: ASAP start – January 15, 2027
Commitment: Part-time, 20 hrs/week
Location: Anywhere in the U.S. (remote)
Compensation: $85/hour
WHAT YOU'LL OWN:
- Competitive intelligence: Update and up-level our existing CI program – refresh the monitoring cadence, stand up a formal win-loss interview process, and produce a synthesized view of the agentic identity landscape. This builds on and connects to our existing Schools-side CI on ClassLink and Identity Automation.
- Beta program: Recruit and manage external beta customers/design partners for the AI product development work – owning timeline, participant engagement, and structured feedback capture end to end.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:
- Proven experience running competitive intelligence programs and/or win-loss research in a B2B software company – ability to go from raw signal to a defensible, actionable point of view.
- Experience recruiting and managing external beta/design-partner programs, including structured customer interviewing.
- Comfortable interfacing directly with Product and Engineering leadership and prospective enterprise customers without heavy oversight – this is a senior, largely self-directed contract role.
- Strong synthesis and writing skills: able to turn interviews and research into a clear, usable point of view, not just raw notes.
- EdTech, identity/auth, or AI infrastructure background is a plus, but not required.
- Available for a focused, part-time engagement with a hard deliverable date.
- Commitment to inclusion and belonging: Clever believes that the classrooms we serve and our company’s halls should be spaces that are diverse and inclusive. We seek opportunities and celebrate actions that further allow us to build diverse teams, include every voice, and create a safe space for everyone to bring their authentic selves into the workplace.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:
- By the end of the contract, Clever has: a refreshed, running competitive intelligence program with a defined cadence; a completed beta program with documented customer learnings; and a synthesized point of view on the agentic identity market – all handed off in a format the incoming PMM lead can pick up directly, with no ramp-up time. The final week of the contract is reserved specifically for documentation and a handoff briefing.
