We are looking for driven Product Managers who have the ability to learn, convince, prototype, build, measure, and refine the next generation of online advertising tools in a lean/agile development environment. The ideal candidate will be technical, driven, think creatively, and has great collaboration and communication skills.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:

As the voice of our customers globally, you’ll deeply understand how to make users’ lives better through software. One of our core product principles is “do the right thing”. We expect you to represent our company and exercise good judgement, by balancing the needs of our diverse agency clients. You will accomplish this by teaming up with designers, developers, product managers and business stakeholders to create delightful, engaging experiences. You will gather customer requirements, design prototypes, prioritize and scope releases that represent customers’ needs, then work with the rest of the engineering team to build those products and iterate on them over time.

In this role you will own the roadmap and execution for various audience and data products. This can include UI/API experiences for building and managing audiences; data visualizations of audience attributes; data science models and pipelines for data discoverability, data quality, and audience creation; and workflows for activating these audiences across The Trade Desk platform. As a Product Manager for audiences and data products, you will be working closely with stakeholders across our UX/UI, Data Partnerships, Data Science, and Engineering Teams - helping think through tradeoffs in workflow implementations, visualizations, model approaches, and customer impact. In addition to those teams, you will be working with stakeholders all across the globe to bring our shared vision for programmatic advertising to life.

· Grit -- sometimes solutions take creative thinking and multiple iterations. You try many different approaches the right answer.

· Collaborative -- the best PMs are not necessarily those with the best ideas, but those that ensure the right thing gets done.

· Selfless -- Product Management is about making sure the best work gets done by the team, and making sure they share in the credit.

· Empathy -- As a PM you are the voice of the customer and need to represent them from a position of deep understanding.

· Entrepreneur -- as a PM you need to get out there and convince others of your ideas

· Excellent communication/presentation skills both in large and small groups.

· A sustained track record of making significant, self-directed, and end-to-end contributions to large and impactful software projects
