Build and execute programs within Marketo, including campaign flows, audience segmentation, nurture programs, performance tracking, and marketing-to-sales workflow alignment.

Establish KPIs aligned to regional government and defense sales realities, including account penetration, stakeholder engagement depth, opportunity influence, pipeline contribution, and deal acceleration.

Partner with the Director of Field Marketing, Middle East / Asia to ensure regional programs are aligned with broader Asia Pacific and Middle East field marketing strategy, priorities, processes, and best practices.

Share regional insights, customer intelligence, and program learnings with the broader global Field Marketing organization to strengthen Shield AI’s overall go-to-market strategy.

Bring structure, accountability, and operational rigor to field marketing execution across strategically important aerospace and defense markets.
