Product Manager - Paid Search / Acquisition

What You'll Do

• Own the product roadmap and backlog. Set priorities based on expected business impact, technical risk, effort, and team capacity.
• Coordinate delivery across Engineering, Data Science, Analytics, and Operations. Agree on owners and milestones, manage dependencies, resolve blockers, and keep teams informed.
• Develop the systems that automate bidding, campaign structure, keyword coverage, and ad assets. Use recurring operational problems to identify product improvements that work at scale.
• Define product requirements, acceptance criteria, and release checks with technical partners. Assess data flows, system interfaces, and failure cases when choosing an approach.
• Partner on attribution, data quality, measurement, and policy constraints. Trace how these affect system decisions and agree on how to validate a solution.
• Translate commercial goals into product priorities. Explain the expected benefit, cost, risks, and trade-offs of each major investment.
• Maintain clear records of product decisions, system behavior, and experiment findings. Make this knowledge easy for teams to find and use.
• Plan experiments and define success measures with Analytics and Data Science. Assess whether system changes produce incremental business value and recommend what to expand, change, or stop.
• Improve dashboards, alerts, and operational workflows so teams can detect problems early, assess system health, and reduce manual work.

What You've Done

• Required: Experience owning technical products, internal platforms, or automated decision systems. You can explain your product decisions, your delivery role, and the business results.
• Required: Ability to work through complex technical problems with Engineering and Data Science. You can trace data flows, discuss APIs and system dependencies, and assess implementation trade-offs.
• Experience managing a roadmap and backlog, setting priorities, and coordinating delivery across teams. You can balance business value, technical constraints, and available capacity.
• Strong commercial judgment. You can connect changes in system behavior to revenue, profit, cost, and operating efficiency, and use this evidence to guide product decisions.
• Strong analytical judgment. You can define useful metrics, assess experiment quality, and explain the limits of attribution and what the evidence supports.
• Clear written and verbal communication, strong organization, and reliable follow-through. You can resolve unclear ownership, make decisions explicit, and keep several teams aligned.
• Relevant experience may include advertising technology, attribution or measurement products, marketplace systems, pricing, or optimization platforms. You can show how your work improved business decisions and outcomes.
• Ability to learn a complex business domain and turn that knowledge into clear requirements. You take ownership of daily coordination, documentation, and delivery.
• Preferred: Experience with paid-search systems, Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, or acquisition automation at scale. Direct campaign management experience is useful but is not required.
