Job Description

Samba is a media intelligence company. We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about — in real time, at scale, across every screen. Our data exists with the consent of over a billion people, organized into the most complete picture of consumer attention ever built. The biggest brands in the world use that picture to make smarter decisions. We think it’s the most interesting data asset on the planet, because it’s the most culturally relevant.

The role

We are looking for a Director Product Manager to advance our identity resolution capabilities and build future-proof identity and activation solutions. You will own product strategy and roadmap across both identity and activation, bring a clear point of view on where the market is heading, and turn that into products customers want to buy.

This is a senior role for someone who can operate at two altitudes. You set direction and vision, and you are also hands-on: close to customers, close to engineering, and comfortable making the calls on what gets built and in what order. You will play a meaningful part in expanding our client base, which means you understand the market, the buyers, and what it takes to win them.

What You'll Do

  • Own the product vision and roadmap for identity resolution and activation, and make the prioritization calls that keep the team focused on what matters most.
  • Advance our identity resolution product: graph building and enrichment, cross-device and cross-identifier linking, and interoperability.
  • Own the activation side with equal weight: audience activation, data orchestration, and delivery across a broad and growing set of destinations, including platforms and DSPs, in cloud-native environments.
  • Develop a clear understanding of the market and competitive landscape, and translate it into product positioning and roadmap decisions that expand the client base.
  • Partner directly with customers and commercial teams to understand what they need, and translate commercial requirements into clear, buildable specifications for engineering.
  • Work hands-on with engineering day to day to deliver, unblock decisions quickly, and keep the roadmap moving.
  • Own privacy and data governance considerations across the product, so that identity and activation are built to a privacy-first standard from the start.
  • Define the success metrics for the products you own, and use them to guide investment and iteration.

About Samba TV

Television remains a vibrant cultural influence and an essential source of entertainment and information worldwide. Tremendous growth in content choices, and viewing platforms that allow us to watch anything, anytime, on any screen, has actually made it harder for viewers to discover and keep up with all the great programming available. It’s also more competitive for content providers to keep your attention, and for marketers to make strong, measurable connections with their target consumers.

Technology that improves the viewing experience, enables content discovery, and addresses audience fragmentation across screens will strengthen television’s business model and relevance to consumers. Data is at the center of any solution to make TV better.

Samba TV's technology is built into Smart TVs and easily maps to smart phones and tablets. By recognizing what's on screen, Samba TV learns what viewers like and using machine learning algorithms, enables discovery of shows and actors in a whole new way.

Likewise, our data and measurement products are transforming the way stakeholders across the media landscape are thinking about their business. Given the dramatic growth in streaming services, connected devices, time-shifting, and multi-screen viewership, our data products solve real problems and create a meaningful competitive advantage for our clients.
