What you need
- 7 to 10 or more years of experience in Marketing or Media Operations, Program Management, Business Operations, or a closely related field within complex, cross-functional organizations.
- Demonstrated experience as a senior individual contributor with real decision authority and ownership over cross-functional operating systems.
- Fluency in program management: workback schedules, risk management, project velocity, and hands-on ownership of project management tooling for non-technical teams.
- Systems mindset: proven ability to take fragmented or inconsistent processes and make them clearer, simpler, and more reliable, with a track record of building standardized templates and driving adoption across multiple teams.
- Strong understanding of how media teams plan, intake, prioritize, and execute work at scale, including familiarity with media tech stacks.
- Excellent written communication and structured thinking, with the ability to turn complex inputs into crisp narratives and leadership-ready materials.
Nice to have

- Experience in retail, consumer tech, or marketplace businesses.
What you get
- Highly market-competitive compensation and benefits in each location where employees work.
- Eligible for a new hire equity grant as well as annual refresh grants.
Worth weighing
- Base pay varies significantly by location, with specific ranges provided for different states.
