Overview

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) powers some of the world's most demanding workloads, helping organizations innovate with secure, high-performance cloud services. As OCI continues to grow, we're looking for a Principal Program Manager – Product Messaging to help shape how we communicate our technology, customer impact, and product strategy.

This role sits at the intersection of product messaging, executive communications, customer storytelling, and strategic program management, bringing OCI's products and strategy to life through compelling narratives while driving high-impact initiatives across the OCI Product Management organization.

You'll partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, Product Marketing, and executive leadership to develop customer-facing stories, build compelling executive presentations, ghostwrite executive communications, and translate complex cloud technologies into clear, credible, and impactful messaging. Your work will support high-visibility engagements, including executive keynotes, industry conferences, customer meetings, press and analyst briefings, and strategic presentations.

Beyond storytelling, you'll bring structure, judgment, and execution to complex cross-functional initiatives. From supporting AI-related initiatives across Product Management to stepping into critical, time-sensitive projects, you'll help align stakeholders, translate strategic objectives into actionable plans, and drive initiatives through execution.

The ideal candidate is an exceptional writer and presentation builder with proven experience developing product messaging and partnering with technical teams to create compelling storylines. You know how to transform complex technical concepts, engineering insights, and product capabilities into engaging narratives that resonate with executive, technical, and business audiences.

You're equally comfortable crafting an executive keynote, shaping a customer success story, developing a product messaging framework, and leading a complex initiative involving multiple stakeholders. You thrive in ambiguity, influence without direct authority, and combine creative storytelling with strong business judgment and disciplined execution.
