We need someone who is eager to define and lead key initiatives that deliver value to the members of our community while growing our SaaS business!

- Work with the Business Intelligence team to identify new opportunities with measurable success, feeding findings back into the product development process
- Stay current with Film, Internet, Mobile, and Video industries to advise on areas of product development
- Proactively communicate product plans, benefits and results across critical team members
Skills and knowledge you should possess:
- 7+ years of Product Management experience with end-to-end product launches
- Deep knowledge of and experience with video players
- Analytically-minded and adept at making cases with data
- Aesthetic and empathy for excellent user experience. Appreciation of simple-yet-impactful design with a boundless curiosity about what can make our members successful
- Experience developing product specs, writing user stories, and identifying and prioritizing competing products to deliver timely results
- Accustomed to generating results over process in a collaborative, fast-paced environment
- Strong written and oral communicator. Comfortable speaking in front of diverse audiences and crafting a product narrative that cuts through ambiguity
