Job Description

AI is poised to redefine how the world learns — who gets access, how teachers teach, how institutions operate, and how individuals build skills across a lifetime. Microsoft AI has the scale, the research depth, and the responsibility to lead this transformation with integrity and ambition. The Director of Product Marketing Management for Education ensures we do so with clarity, purpose, and impact. This is a role for someone who wants to shape not just a product, but the future of learning itself. Education is one of the most transformative arenas for AI — a sector where technology doesn't just improve learning, but reshapes human potential. As Director of Product Marketing for Education, you will help define how Microsoft AI shows up for students, institutions, and lifelong learners around the world. This is a role for a marketer who can operate at the intersection of product strategy, pedagogy, policy, and storytelling — someone who can translate complex AI capabilities into experiences that feel intuitive, ethical, and indispensable in classrooms and learning environments. You will own the upstream truth of our Education products: the user and competitive insights, the narrative, the category framing, and the strategic conditions that ensure we build solutions that genuinely improve learning outcomes and institutional resilience—and offer a viable and compelling alternative to offers already rapidly gaining traction. You will partner deeply with Product, Engineering, and Research to shape the roadmap, influence prioritization, and ensure we are solving the right problems with clarity and conviction. And you will craft the stories that help students understand not just what our products do, but why they are desirable to their learning journey. This is a role for a systems thinker, a strategist, and a storyteller — someone who can bring coherence to a complex ecosystem and elevate Microsoft AI as the trusted partner for the future of learning. This role plays a critical part in shaping how the next generation discovers, learns, and builds with AI—translating Microsoft's innovation into meaningful, trusted adoption across education at global scale. Microsoft AI is redefining how the world learns — how students build skills, how institutions operate, and how people access opportunity across a lifetime. Microsoft AI has the scale, the ecosystem, and the responsibility to lead this transformation with integrity and ambition. Together, we contribute to Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond. In alignment with our Microsoft values, we are committed to cultivating an inclusive work environment for all employees to positively impact our culture every day.
