Balance competing priorities in a rapidly changing media landscape using data-driven and user/customer-based insights, first-principles thinking, and analytical rigor

What We're Looking For

15+ years of product and/or technology leadership, with at least 5 years at VP or SVP level or above
Prior experience running engineering, product, and product design organizations — ideally all three simultaneously
Background and fluency in the media industry, or at a large-scale consumer content or digital subscription company
Track record of closing capability gaps while keeping the train running — not just maintaining existing roadmaps and achieving incremental improvements
Exceptional executive communication and operational capabilities — able to present to a board in the morning, contribute to an architecture review in the afternoon, and navigate a wide range of stakeholder types to resolve vague or complex situations
Fluent in AI tooling and AI-native software, product design, and product management — and clear about what AI can and cannot do yet
Strong people leadership and emotional intelligence; demonstrated ability to build high-performing, inclusive teams across engineering, product, and design
Commercial acumen and understanding of media business models, digital audience economics, and data monetization

Education

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field required
An advanced degree a plus but not required in lieu of demonstrated experience

Total compensation: Range-$400,000- $450,000. This includes a Management Bonus.
