- Proven experience owning live streaming product experiences.
- You have shipped through breaking news or live event moments and understand what it takes to keep a live video product stable under peak load
- Ability to write product requirements that engineering teams can act on directly and are technically specific enough to be unambiguous, audience-focused enough to keep the experience goals clear
Skills
- Excellent written and verbal communication: you can present video strategy and performance to senior leadership with confidence and clarity
- Ability to operate independently as a senior IC across multiple workstreams without close supervision
- Active, practiced use of AI agents across research, synthesis, PRD drafting, stakeholder communications, and sprint preparation
