About the Role:
Sitecore has a variety of products designed to enhance digital experiences. Our core products include XM Cloud - an enterprise-grade CMS and Content Hub - a market-leading Digital Asset Management system. Other category-leading products set alongside our CMS include Search, OrderCloud, Personalize and Content Hub ONE. Sitecore Stream is our new capability for AI driven orchestration.
What is Content Hub? Larger enterprises use DAMs (Digital Asset Management) like Content Hub to manage cross-channel content (images, videos, 3D, text, etc.). It makes sense to manage this content in one pace for workflow, versioning, analytics, and provenance. Content Hub has thousands of users, some of whom spend their entire workday on the product.
With the rise of Generative AI, Content Hub has a huge role to play in the management of the new content sources. Content Hub has a strong story in AI including AI semantic search and tagging. We also provide last-mile AI image manipulation. Customers can also bring their AI. This year, Content Hub was placed in a Gartner Magic Quadrant for DAMs as an innovator.
