PM and PMM should work very close with each other. To over simply it, PM works with the engineers to develop new products. PMM crafts messaging and positioning to bring those products to market or drive pipeline via marketing campaigns.

This clears it up well! Thanks for the explanation

Yes, echoing the above two comments, PM and PMM in tech serve very distinct roles. Definitely not the same thing. In tech, all product management is technical though so I’m not sure what you mean by “non-technical” in tech.

Why making the switch? Curious as I may be doing the opposite move!
