Job Description:

The Trade Desk is a global technology company with a mission to create a better, more open Internet for everyone through principled, intelligent advertising. Handling over 600 billion--queries--per day (more than 100X--the query volume of search--globally), our platform operates at unprecedented scale. We have--also--built something even stronger and more valuable: an award-winning culture based on trust, empathy, collaboration, and ownership. By working together across typical dividing lines, we are--better--as a team than any of us could be apart. Do you have a passion for solving--hard--problems at scale? Are you eager to join a trust-based, globally-connected team, where your contributions will make a meaningful difference?-- Come and see why Fortune Magazine consistently ranks The Trade Desk among best small-medium sized workplaces globally. ABOUT THE ROLE:-- Senior Product Managers are individual contributors, lead the team by example, and bring emphasis to the customer perspective. Through daily work with the engineering team, you will contribute to the platform extensibility offerings from The Trade Desk. These include client developer experience with our Public API and Data API and data developer experiences with our log-level data feeds. Product Managers in this area focus on solutions for problems and opportunities with some of The Trade Desk's largest, most sophisticated clients and integrations. Much of the work is custom by nature, and you will be presented with an array of business, privacy, and technological challenges. Gathering and considering feedback from stakeholders, you will work across multiple teams and author documents that accurately and thoroughly describe requirements for product improvements and processes. You will drive many aspects of product development strategy - from gathering usage data, conducting client interviews, evaluating industry trends to designing, refining, and delivering specifications to helping deliver products for our clients. Senior Product Managers help craft the vision, strategy, and prioritization of work across multiple engineering teams. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR: You deeply understand the why behind the work and how it feeds into our top-level objectives. You have a product-focused mindset. You have the passion and ability to contribute to the process of discovering what will delight our clients and push forward one of the world's largest and most influential industries toward a vision of openness, transparency, and evidence-based decision-making. You have a proven interest and sustained track record of technical product management excellence. You should have multiple significant contributions to impactful software projects. You are a driver. You will be driving technical projects and providing leadership in a complex, fast-paced environment. This includes task planning, milestone definition, and releases coordination. You understand engineering fundamentals and design with scale and the future in mind. You can work from first principles to evaluate solutions and adapt them to a unique environment.-- You work with confidence and without ego. Our employees have deep knowledge and exercise a high degree of leadership in their daily work. You have strongly-held, defensible ideas, and advocate for what you believe is right. You are adept at analysis and conclusion, identifying and evaluating trade-offs and considering multiple viewpoints, and utilizing data as appropriate. You value, seek out, and foster diversity. We are a global team from many diverse backgrounds, with different experiences and perspectives. To complement this team, you will welcome ideas that are different from your own and be skilled at finding and building from common ground.-- You are a creative thinker and take the time to truly understand what you are solving. What you know is less important than how well you learn and innovate. WHAT WE CARE ABOUT:--
What and how you can contribute is what's important to us. Our consideration is not limited by the kind of education you have or the specific technologies you have experience with. Variety of technical challenges is one of the best things about working at The Trade Desk as a product manager, but we do not expect you to know every technology we use when you start. What we care about is that you can learn quickly, efficiently manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy, and help develop your team as they solve complex problems using the best tools for the job. Our culture runs much deeper than just having fun together (though, we do that well too...) - the people we want on our team are trust-builders, generous givers, scrappy problem solvers, and gritty pursuers of excellence.-- If this is interesting to you, we welcome your application and the chance to meet you.-- #LI-CP1 Our Compensation and Benefits (for Colorado residents only) In accordance with Colorado law, the range provided is The Trade Desk's reasonable estimate of the base compensation for this role.
