4. Shape and Validate Market Opportunities: Conduct research to size the market, define customer needs, and ensure product-market fit.
5. Drive Innovation: Guide experimentation and testing, leveraging machine learning and AI.
6. Champion the Retailer and End-User: Ensure solutions create compelling, user-centered experiences that deliver measurable business impact.

Who You Are

• Degree in a technical field or Business, with relevant experience.
• 8+ years in product management, with ownership of complex platform, search, ad delivery, or optimization solutions.
• Experience in HPO or related fields such as search result blending, dynamic content assembly, auction models, or content ranking strategies.
• Background in retail, search, social networks, AdTech, or content integration preferred.
• Strong strategic, data-driven, and technical skills, familiar with machine learning and experimentation frameworks.
• Entrepreneurial, self-driven, and capable of owning high-visibility projects.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
