What You'll Do:

• Lead product vision, roadmap, and execution for our core products.
• Translate customer problems and technical challenges into clear, scalable product solutions.

• Monitor market trends and competitors to identify new opportunities and strategic directions.
• Guide technical discovery and support integration planning with partners and platforms.
• Drive and support go-to-market efforts including training, enablement, and launch success.
• Establish performance KPIs, track outcomes, and optimize based on impact and feedback.
• Enhance internal rollout processes and create relevant documentation, onboarding process, and support readiness.
• Conduct MRC and other compliance work by working on audits, collaborating with different teams, and third-party certification providers—making sure we meet standards and find ways to improve the product and processes

What You’ll Need:

• 8+ years of product management experience in AdTech, cybersecurity, or SaaS environments.
• Strong technical backgrounds: you understand architecture, data flows, and can collaborate with engineers.
• Experience owning full product lifecycle—from discovery to launch and post-release optimization.
• Excellent communication skills, especially when translating between technical and non-technical teams.
• Analytical mindset with experience using data (SQL, dashboards, KPIs) to guide product decisions.
• Proven leadership in fast-moving, complex environments with multiple stakeholders.
• Positive can-do attitude

Nice to Have:

• Experience working in fast-paced, growing companies.
• Familiarity with MRC audits, QA/testing, customer onboarding, or internal training.
