Job summary

Scribd, Inc. is seeking a strategic director to own Content Intelligence & Supply and turn our 400-million-document UGC corpus into a scalable asset. You’ll unify content understanding and supply, partner with ML and data science, and drive a portfolio-level roadmap with executives.

You’ll lead senior PMs and engineers, connect corpus decisions to business outcomes such as licensing, growth, and product quality, and shape the organization for future scale.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of product management experience, including 4+ years leading product teams or senior PMs.
• Depth in data-heavy product domains: ML/AI-powered products, search, recommendations, content platforms, or marketplaces.
• Genuine data fluency—you can credibly direct classification and corpus-analysis work and partner with applied ML and data science teams as an equal, even if you don’t build the models yourself.
• Familiarity with common data structures around the use of content for AI training.
• Experience with supply-side or two-sided product dynamics: creators, contributors, sellers, or content acquisition.

Responsibilities

• Own the content understanding roadmap: classification, enrichment, metadata, and quality across the UGC corpus.
• Drive corpus gap analysis: where the corpus is deep, where it’s thin, and how user-generated and partner content behave differently.
• Make the corpus legible—to our own products (search, discovery, recommendations) and to the teams and systems that build on it.
• Set direction for classification and corpus-analysis work with credibility, in close partnership with applied ML, engineering, and data science teams.
• Own UGC supply end to end: uploads, conversions, and the supply-side user experience.
