EMEA Field Marketing Manager

SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide. At the core of SambaNova’s technology is the RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) — a chip built on a dataflow architecture rather than the traditional GPU model. Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the-art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.

SambaNova is looking for a highly strategic and execution-focused Field & Partner Marketing Manager to lead regional field and partner marketing initiatives. This role is responsible for driving pipeline growth across a designated geography by aligning marketing investments with sales priorities, accelerating partner engagement, and delivering high-impact field programs.

As the regional marketing leader, reporting to the VP of Demand and Field Marketing, you will serve as the primary marketing partner to the Area Vice President (AVP) of Sales and regional partner teams, owning the execution of integrated campaigns, executive events, partner co-marketing initiatives, and localized demand programs that contribute directly to pipeline and bookings targets.

• Support partner enablement initiatives and help scale awareness of SambaNova solutions across the ecosystem.
