Director, Technology Public Relations

Company Description

WD is building the infrastructure behind the AI-driven data economy.

As AI scales, so does data. Every interaction, every model, every system generates data that must be stored, managed, and made accessible over time. That’s where we come in.

We combine deep engineering expertise with global-scale manufacturing to deliver the storage systems that make AI possible, powering hyperscale data centers, cloud platforms, and enterprise infrastructure worldwide.

This isn’t theoretical work. It’s real systems, at real scale, people solving some of the hardest challenges in technology today.

We’re looking for people who want to build, solve, and operate at that level.

Join us and let’s shape the future of data.

Job Description

In this role, you will join WD’s public relations function at a defining moment. With WD forming the storage foundation of the AI-driven data economy, how the company is covered — in the press, in trade publications, in podcast conversations, and across digital media — shapes perception with customers, partners, investors, and talent alike. This role is responsible for building and executing a proactive, narrative-driven technology PR program that cuts through the noise of a crowded enterprise tech landscape and establishes WD as an essential voice in the AI infrastructure conversation.

You will serve as the primary interface between WD's executive team and the media ecosystem — from top-tier technology press to influential trade outlets and emerging digital voices — and will be responsible for both the strategy and the day-to-day execution that keeps WD's story in front of the right audiences at the right moments.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

* Develop and own WD's global tech PR strategy, including narrative architecture, message platform, and a proactive story calendar that aligns with product launches, executive thought leadership, industry events, and broader market momen
