About the Role

The Trade Desk is seeking an experienced Product Manager to oversee its critical Budget & Pacing system. This role involves understanding the full campaign lifecycle and ensuring seamless execution of client campaign flights. You will collaborate with various teams to drive adoption and ensure client needs are met.

Responsibilities

Own product strategy and execution for TTD’s Budget & Pacing system, from the UX experience all the way to our pacing controllers.
Collaborate with numerous product teams across our platform to ensure that they can ship their features safely without disrupting spend on the platform.
Go deep on the core pacing engine: the controllers that decide how budget is spent over time, and the algorithms that allocate it across ad groups and channels.
Partner with applied science on pacing and bidding algorithms, and be able to dig deep into technically complex areas.
Own the intake surface for every team whose features touch spend, including live events, inventory, supply path optimization, deals and others.
Build the roadmap from direct contact with traders and agencies.
Define how we measure pacing quality, and prove changes through experimentation.

Requirements

7+ years in product management, with at least 2 in ad tech, or 4 in a field with directly translatable mechanics such as high-frequency trading, fintech, marketplace pricing, or yield management.
Technical depth sufficient to challenge engineering and applied science on design decisions.
Comfort reading algorithm specs and reasoning about control loops and allocation logic.
Understanding of the full campaign lifecycle, from IO through flight setup to delivery and reporting, or a demonstrated ability to get there fast.
Experience owning a production system where correctness and scale both matter, and where a bad decision shows up in someone’s money.
A track record of shipping through teams you do not control.
Direct customer contact in a prior role, translating what users actually want into requirements.
