About The Position
We are seeking a Head of Product to own and drive the end-to-end product strategy, vision, and execution for Amazon Publisher Cloud.

Operating at the intersection of programmatic advertising, privacy-enhanced collaboration, and AI/ML optimization, APC bridges advertiser outcomes with publisher supply across streaming TV, web, and emerging formats.

This role requires a leader who can envision the future of programmatic advertising while engaging deeply in the technical architecture of clean rooms, AI-powered optimization engines, and real-time bidding systems. As a team, we value bold thinking, intellectual rigor, and a bias for action.
