About The Position

Audible is seeking a Senior Product Manager to define and build key technologies that support Audible's catalog ingestion and publishing functions, driving automation and optimal operational efficiencies and exceptional experiences for our customers, creators, and internal teams. This role focuses on developing scalable, automated content ingestion pipelines and publishing systems that power Audible's catalog across 1P, 2P, and 3P audiobooks and podcasts.

You'll partner closely with engineering teams, applied data scientists, product managers, content operations, and UX designers to create, execute, and iterate on systems that address the needs of content providers, internal operators, and downstream consumers of Audible's catalog. The Senior Product Manager is an individual contributor role.
