About The Position

Ibotta is hiring a Director of Product Management to lead the IPN Advertiser Experience, including the Portal and tools advertisers, Ibotta sellers, and Operations use to plan, launch, optimize, and measure campaigns on the Ibotta Performance Network (IPN). The role will transform the Portal from a promotions interface into an intelligent, agent-first performance marketing platform as Ibotta evolves from a promotions marketplace to a modern performance marketing engine. The goal is a unified Portal experience that increases adoption, reduces friction, and delivers measurable value for every user.

The Director will lead a growing team of Product Managers across Campaign Design, Optimization, Performance, and Portal Experience. The role partners closely with the Campaign Platform team, which owns the underlying APIs, data, and integrations, and with Engineering, Data Science, UX, Product Marketing, Sales, Client Success, and Operations. This is a hybrid position based in Denver, Colorado, with three in-office days each week: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Candidates must live in the United States. A relocation bonus is available for candidates who are not currently based in Denver.

Ibotta is a performance marketing platform that enables brands to deliver digital promotions to consumers through the Ibotta Performance Network.
