You wake up. The world of AdOps is full of routines, loops, and inefficiencies. But you see more. You see the opportunity to design autonomous agents – digital allies that don’t just assist but transform the way video advertising is managed. Fleets of AI-powered agents that handle setup, optimize workflows, automate media processes, and tackle challenges across the entire campaign lifecycle. Not just tools. Systems of intelligence. As a Product Manager, you’ll lead the vision, design, and delivery of these agents – shaping how they learn, what they solve, and how they evolve.

What you own

• End-to-end ownership of AI agents from ideation to rollout.
• A dynamic environment where experiments drive progress – no stagnation, no copy-paste.
• Room to innovate: leverage Open Source tools and Greenfield projects.
• Strategic influence: you won’t just contribute, you’ll define the direction of automation in video advertising.

Activities

• Drive AI adoption across the platform, fostering confidence and trust in automated workflows.
• Build fleets of AI Agents: prototype, design, and roll out multi-agent systems across the video advertising campaign lifecycle.
• Enable media automation: identify opportunities where AI reduces manual effort, increases speed, and improves accuracy.
• Understand real-world AdOps problems: translate them into agent-driven solutions.
• Continuously optimize agent performance through measurable outcomes and feedback loops.

Requirements

• Bring AdTech and AdOps expertise – ideally with experience on the supply side.
• Have hands-on experience with AI products and automations, from prototypes to production.
• Combine technical fluency with strategic thinking – balancing detail with vision. You understand APIs, data flows, and system integration.
• Can translate user needs and business goals into clear product requirements.
  You are skilled at stakeholder management and driving alignment across cross-functional teams.
• Carry a growth mindset: curious, fast, pragmatic, and hands-on. You thrive in fast-paced, iterative environments where ambiguity is the norm and experimentation is expected.
