Senior Product Manager, Media Buying & Inventory Platform

New York, New York, United States

Tatari is on a mission to revolutionize TV advertising. We work with some of your favorite disruptor brands—like Calm, Fiverr, OneWheel and Chime—to grow their business through linear and streaming TV. We combine a sophisticated media buying platform with proprietary analytics to turn TV advertising into an automated, digital-like experience.

Named one of the Hottest Ad Tech Companies by Business Insider, and Best Places to Work by Inc. Magazine for the third consecutive year, our team includes founders and leaders from Google, Microsoft, Stripe, Shazam and Facebook. We are growing rapidly as we accelerate our mission to automate the complex landscape of managing and measuring television advertising. We have a long-term goal to make marketing on TV available to businesses of any size.

We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to take the lead in shaping Tatari’s automated direct IO infrastructure. This role is critical to ensuring that media buyer workflows are faithfully translated into automation, while also guaranteeing that our proprietary inventory and audience data layer (“the Catalog”) is structured, accurate, and leveraged effectively. In this role, you will operate at the intersection of campaign management, inventory and targeting data, and platform automation. You will balance technical platform ownership with a deep focus on the needs of media buyers, ensuring that campaigns can be set up, executed, and optimized seamlessly. This position is ideal for someone who thrives in complex, data-driven environments, and who wants to influence both the internal systems architecture and the end-to-end buying experience.

Responsibilities: 

Understand and advocate for media buyers

  • Develop a deep understanding of how media buyers structure campaigns, target their audience(s), and measure outcomes.
  • Champion their requirements in all product decisions so campaigns are accurately and efficiently represented within automated direct IO execution.
  • Translate buyer workflows into platform features that improve usability, accuracy, and efficiency.

Inventory and Audience Targeting Data

  • Ensure the inventory and targeting data stored in the Catalog is structured for both operational execution (buying, targeting, pacing) and analytical purposes (forecasting, modeling, reporting).
  • Guarantee that Catalog data is consistently reflected across downstream systems, including campaign management, reporting, and optimization tools.
  • Partner with data science teams to maximize how Catalog data feeds predictive modeling and AI-driven recommendations.

Bridge business and technical teams

  • Translate complex media buyer needs into clear product requirements, specifications, and acceptance criteria.
  • Collaborate closely with engineering, data science, and design to ensure requirements are implemented accurately and at scale.
  • Act as a key connector between the commercial side of the business (media buyers, MediaOps) and the technical infrastructure teams.

Operational Enablement

  • Support MediaOps and other internal teams by ensuring Catalog updates are timely, accurate, and aligned with evolving business workflows.
  • Identify gaps in processes or tools and drive solutions that make operational teams more efficient and less reliant on manual effort.

Tooling & Documentation

  • Promote the adoption of Catalog tools that enhance data discovery, lineage, and documentation, making inventory and targeting data more accessible to both technical and business users.

Ensure Data Quality

  • Champion data quality initiatives to guarantee that Catalog data and business logic are accurate, validated, and reliable.
  • Work with engineering and QA teams to build guardrails and validation processes into Catalog workflows, reducing errors and ensuring long-term trust in the system.

Qualifications: 

  • 5+ years of relevant product management experience in direct, programmatic or digital advertising.
  • Strong understanding of media buying workflows (campaign setup, targeting, pacing, optimization) and how buyers interact with DSPs.
  • Strong written and verbal communicator with excellent people skills to interact with various teams inside the company, clients, and vendors, including a demonstrable ability to present a case for your roadmap and initiatives to senior leadership in a clear and compelling manner that inspires action. 
  • Customer-needs obsessed, black-belt user story and solution creation, passionate about solving customer problems. 
  • Passionate about tools, automation, and AI-driven innovation, while staying pragmatic and execution-focused.
  • Experience and strength in partnering closely with Engineering and Design to address complex problems and varying customer needs through effective user research and product design
  • Demonstrated ability to influence without authority and get organizational buy in and excitement for product roadmap(s).
  • Passionate about tools and automation, but practical about getting things done.
  • Bonus: an understanding of advertising media operations; Experience working with data platforms, taxonomies, or inventory/targeting models (CTV/streaming preferred); zero-to-one experience building innovative products from scratch; helped a past company evolve home-grown legacy systems into more modern and effective infrastructures.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary ($160,000-200,000 Annually)
  • Equity compensation
  • Health insurance coverage for you and your dependents
  • Unlimited PTO and sick days
  • Snacks, drinks, and catered lunches at the office

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
