About The Position

We are seeking a Vice President of Product, Advertising Technology to architect the evolution of our proprietary ad stack. In this high-impact role, you will move beyond simple inventory management to build a comprehensive Ad Technology Application that powers the complete campaign lifecycle. You will act as the technical strategist bridging our massive content library and revenue goals.

Responsibilities

• End-to-End Platform Architecture

• Operational Workflow Integration: Translate current business operations into digital workflows. You will map out the day-to-day journeys of Sales and Ad Ops users to identify friction points and automate handoffs.
• Execution & Delivery
• Ad Server Unification: Orchestrate the complex integration between linear traffic systems and digital ad servers (GAM/FreeWheel) to ensure seamless campaign delivery across all endpoints.
• Programmatic Integration: Integrate established programmatic pipelines and SSP connections directly into the application layer, ensuring the platform provides a unified view of programmatic demand alongside direct-sold inventory.
