About the Role

As a Product Consultant embedded with our client in sports entertainment, you will be responsible for driving the delivery of world-class video and advertising experiences across web, mobile, and connected devices. You will take ownership of roadmap execution and day-to-day delivery across Video and Ads, collaborating with engineering, design, and business stakeholders. You will be an active contributor to product strategy, leading roadmap conversations, identifying new opportunities, developing use cases, and helping define initiatives from the ground up.

Responsibilities

• Own the operational health of the video and ads backlogs: grooming, ticket hygiene, user stories, sprint tracking, and release readiness across two squads.
• Lead coordination across a vendor ecosystem that includes the video player, encoding/pipeline, video analytics and observability, casting and cross-device continuity, and ad insertion partners.
• Translate product direction into well-scoped product spec docs and ensure they stay accurate as work evolves.
• Own release tracking and delivery reporting, proactively surfacing risks and blockers before they become misses.
• Serve as the connective tissue between platform teams, engineering, QA, design, and external partners on a daily basis.
• Drive roadmap and strategy conversations across Video and Ads — leading opportunity identification, initiative sizing, and prioritization decisions.
• Partner with the Ads Product Director to develop and maintain the ads roadmap.
• Identify new product opportunities across streaming and monetization — bring structured thinking to early-stage ideas and develop them into business cases.
• Stay close to industry trends in streaming media, programmatic advertising, and emerging platforms; bring relevant signals back to the team and influence direction.
• Build and own direct relationships with client stakeholders across product, engineering, ad ops, and business teams.
• Lead the development of user-facing features — gather requirements, synthesize feedback, define success metrics.
• Drive new initiative discovery — interviews, use-case development, competitive research — as the team explores new product surface areas.
• Own product areas end-to-end: from problem definition through launch.

Requirements

• 3 to 5 years of product management experience on a digital product team.
• Strong understanding of video streaming technologies, content delivery networks (CDNs), encoding, playback optimization, and digital video advertising.
• Sharp product instincts: you lead roadmap conversations, spot what's missing, and push back when something isn't right.
• Proven experience coordinating with external technical vendors or partners; comfortable holding people to commitments.
• Clear, precise written communication — your tickets, PRDs, and updates don't require follow-up questions.
• Track record of taking products from concept to launch.
• Curiosity about the business, not just the backlog — you want to understand why things are being built, not just what.
• Hands-on experience with ad insertion platforms or DAI/SSAI workflows.
• Experience with video analytics (QoE) or observability platforms (Mux, Conviva, or similar).
• Ability to analyze product data and translate insights into actionable improvements.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, including with senior client leadership.
• Demonstrated ability to take products from concept to launch as the directly responsible PM.
• Familiarity with third-party streaming platforms, analytics tools, and player integrations.
• Knowledge of accessibility standards, internationalization, and content rights management.
• Working knowledge of AI productivity tooling — prompt engineering, AI-assisted research or ticket writing, LLM tools for synthesis and planning — and a genuine interest in applying them to PM workflows.
• Prior consulting or embedded client engagement experience; comfort operating in a matrixed environment.
