Plan and deliver a sequenced roadmap for your components, aligning with partner teams on architecture, guardrails, and experimentation so launches drive measurable advertiser and Pinner outcomes. • Partner day-to-day with engineering, ML, data science/analytics, design, and research to deliver high-quality features; collaborate with PMM, sales, and policy/integrity as needed for launches.

Facilitate roadmap and requirements reviews, keep shared artifacts (roadmap, PRDs, dependency trackers) up to date, and proactively surface risks, decisions, and changes. • Build new and iterate on features within our ads bidding and optimization solutions that help advertisers clearly express objectives and align budgets to their business needs, while maintaining a safe, delightful Pinner experience. Deliver scoped improvements from discovery through launch and adoption, instrumenting metrics, writing documentation, and incorporating learnings into subsequent iterations.
