Index Exchange

Director of Product, OTT/CTV

Remote

Index Exchange (IX) is looking for an ambitious Director of Product to drive our strategy, engineering build, and go-to-market for our Native ad marketplace. 

You will work with a cast of highly-talents PMs, who have joined us from companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and eBay, to build product roadmaps that will elevate IX to its next growth level. If being innovative and nimble sounds fun, and you like the idea of squaring off against the ad tech giants with a more transparent approach, then this is the role for you!

What are we looking for?

  • Product Sense: We think of Product as the engine that drives our company’s growth. You have solid product intuition. You’ve taken multiple great ideas from conception to market launch to bottom-line business impact. Having lived (and learned) through a few failures is good too.
  • Collaborative Leadership: You’re a natural leader who can rally people across Engineering, UX, Marketing, Sales & Services into a high-functioning delivery team. You are well-organized and delivery-oriented. You can work with Project Management to herd cats and guide an Agile team through delivery against a stack ranked set of priorities.
  • Technical Curiosity: You thrive on figuring out complex systems and marketplaces, identifying opportunities to simplify and improve them, and working with Engineering to make it a reality. You love working at the Internet scale, and you understand how even small adjustments can have a massive impact when applied across billions of users and transactions.
  • Data Centric Mindset: You make significant decisions based on real data, and you use it to convince others that you’re right, because how else would you do it? You’re great at analysis and visualization, and you not only pronounce SQL the right way but you know how to use it
  • Customer Focused Mindset: You love speaking with customers: from world-leading publishers to advertisers and agencies, you’re excited to help them grow their revenue and build a thriving digital ads marketplace.

What you will be doing?

  • Creating product roadmaps to set both internal and external expectations about the products we’ll bring to market
  • Working with commercial teams and customers (publishers, DSPs, agencies) to understand their needs, and decide which ones we should address
  • Using your best judgement to make the right decisions, even when the data is imperfect; this includes saying “NO” to good ideas that simply won’t win, because they’re not great ideas
  • Maintaining a prioritized set of products, features, and bugs in support of a thriving marketplace for digital advertising
  • Collaborating with Design, Engineering and Project Management to deliver high-quality products and features on time
  • Coordinating across numerous commercial and go-to-market stakeholders to ensure that products are launched correctly, that they can be measured appropriately, and that they meet the business objectives they were designed to achieve
  • Partnering with customer service teams to ensure that whatever we build is usable and supportable by our clients

What qualifies you?

  • A Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Math, Computer/Software Engineering or Physics -  we mostly care about your experience in building and releasing great products and features 
  • Track record of successful launches, in collaboration with numerous internal and external stakeholders - some failed launches that you’ve learned from are good too
  • Experience in ad tech and more specifically experience in native advertising, out stream video, rich media, or other creative formats 
  • Track record of successful launches, in collaboration with numerous internal and external stakeholders - some failed launches that you’ve learned from are good too
  • Strong technical, communication, and analytical skills
  • Flexibility for some occasional travel when it is eventually safe for employees to do so

What you will love about working here?

  • Our teams are comprised of top talent from across the ad tech industry and you’ll be working hand-in-hand with and learning from these experts every day
  • Our teams are built around cooperation, respect, and teamwork
  • We offer excellent healthcare benefits, including health, dental, and vision, at NO expense to employees
  • Some of our other competitive benefits include 5% RRSP matching or 401(K), maternity/paternity leave, and a fantastic vacation policy

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY At Index Exchange, we believe that successful products are built by teams just as diverse as the audience who uses them. As such, we are committed to equal employment opportunity. We celebrate diversity of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or expression, or Veteran status. Additionally, we realize that diversity is deeper than any status or classification - diversity is the human experience. For those who show grit, passion, and humility - IX will welcome you.
