About the role

  • Product Experience spans two internal sub-pillars: Product Growth (adoption, activation, expansion) and Product Innovation (discovery, prototyping, platform breakthroughs).
  • The ideal candidate has spent the bulk of their career in ad tech, has built and scaled multi-tenant platforms, and treats user experience as a primary lever for differentiation - not a polish layer added at the end.

Responsibilities

  • Lead Growth and Innovation in Parallel - Run the Product Growth sub-pillar (drive usage, activation, expansion, including the integration of our commerce capabilities) alongside Product Innovation (discovery, prototyping, platform breakthroughs).
  • Set the Bar for Craft - Raise the standard for design-led product work in ad tech: tight problem framing, opinionated UX, defensible technical choices, and shipped outcomes that move advertiser yield, publisher revenue, and operator efficiency.
  • Build and Lead a Senior Team - Manage, mentor, and develop VPs, Directors, and senior PMs across Growth and Innovation. Hire to fill gaps. Develop a bench.
  • Champion User-Centered Design - Insist that every workflow starts with the user. Partner with Design and Research to make user insight a continuous input rather than a quarterly review.
  • Engage Directly with Clients - Run discovery and design partnerships with enterprise advertisers, publishers, and agency partners. Convert client signal into prioritized product work.
  • Partner Across the Org - Operate as the Product Experience counterpart to the leaders of Data Product and Product Operations. Drive shared roadmap, shared metrics, and shared accountability.
  • Drive Measurement and Accountability - Define the success metrics that connect Product Experience investments to commercial outcomes: adoption, retention, expansion, NPS, time-to-value.
  • Be Externally Credible - Represent the product organization with clients, agency partners, and the ad tech ecosystem. Translate the roadmap into commercial narrative.
  • Own strategy, roadmap, and execution for the Product Experience pillar end-to-end.
  • Lead the Product Growth and Product Innovation sub-pillars

Requirements

  • 15+ years of product leadership experience, including 5+ years at the VP/SVP level managing multi-team, multi-product organizations.
  • Proven success leading senior product leaders
  • Track record of operating through periods of organizational change, integration, or rapid scale.
  • Working knowledge of the regulatory and privacy environment surrounding ad tech (GDPR, CCPA, CTV/identity shifts).

Compensation

  • $250,000.00 - $350,000.00
  • A successful applicant's actual base salary may vary based on factors such as individual's skill sets, experience, training, education, licensure/certifications, and qualifications for the role.

Benefits

  • Own the Product Experience Pillar - Define and deliver the strategy, vision, and roadmap for everything customers, operators, and partners touch in our platform.
