The Senior Product Manager will drive product vision and execution across the eBay Live platform: This role requires a unique product leader who can successfully navigate an ambiguous, fast-paced environment. You will be responsible for defining and delivering high-impact features across the entire live commerce journey, including the foundational technology platform, the global buyer experience, and the tools sellers use to broadcast, engage, and monetize their live streams. If you thrive on significant ownership, high visibility, and the chance to build the future of e-commerce, this is the role for you.

• Ambiguity Management: Exceptional ability to thrive in an ambiguous, 0-1 environment, distilling complex, unclear problems into a clear product vision and actionable roadmap.
• Prioritization and Tradeoffs: Demonstrated ability to evaluate options, assess trade-offs (short-term vs. long-term), and recommend a path forward, even with incomplete data.
• Influence & Communication: Masters written and verbal communication, adapting your message to influence both execution teams and executive leadership. Ability to lead and inspire without direct authority.
