Product Manager (Identity)

• You’ll be responsible for how we connect, resolve, and activate identifiers across our proprietary TV viewership data, web behavioral data, third-party assets (both partners and clients) and the evolving identity landscape
• This role sits at the foundation of everything we do—enabling precise audience targeting, accurate measurement, and seamless data interoperability across platforms

• Define requirements for identity onboarding, matching, and activation workflows based on client needs, privacy standards, and technical constraints
• Work cross-functionally with engineering, data science, sales, and client success teams to prioritize identity capabilities that unlock new revenue and improve match rates
• Stay ahead of industry shifts in identity—from deprecation of third-party cookies to emerging standards like Unified ID 2.0, RampID, and clean room integrations
• Balance innovation in deterministic and probabilistic matching techniques against scalability, accuracy, and compliance requirements
• Translate complex identity concepts into clear product specifications and client-facing value propositions
