Job Description
Product Strategy & Roadmap
• Own overall product strategy and roadmap for core streaming products (DCR, SPR, SCR) end-to-end, with the goal to improve the overall customer experience metrics and optimize and scale product enhancements by identifying simplifiers that contribute to overall OE.
• Conduct ongoing market analysis of the streaming, TV, and digital video ecosystem to surface insights on emerging trends, competitor positioning, and client needs.
• Maintain a prioritized product backlog grounded in customer pain-points, data signals, and quarterly strategy documents — not feature requests in isolation.
• Translate SVP-level vision into executable roadmap milestones with clear owners, timelines, and measurable outcomes.
Product Development & Delivery
• Lead prototype-first development cycles: ship working artifacts early, use demos to drive alignment, and produce written specs as a downstream artifact.
• Partner with Engineering, Data Science, and Global Data Solutions to drive timely, high-quality delivery of product increments across the full lifecycle — from requirements and design through QA and launch.
• Define user stories, acceptance criteria, and API/data specs; serve as the primary day-to-day product contact for engineering teams.
Stakeholder Collaboration & Go-to-Market
• Collaborate with Sales, Client Success, and Marketing to develop go-to-market strategies, pricing inputs, and client onboarding materials for new product features and module launches.
• Engage key internal and external stakeholders — including clients, industry partners, and industry associations — to ensure product decisions reflect real-world needs and support enterprise deal cycles.
• Represent the Content Product team across cross-functional forums; communicate priorities, trade-offs, and progress clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Serve as a subject matter expert in video content measurement, contributing to external thought leadership, client conversations, and industry forums as needed.
Quality, Measurement & Continuous Improvement
• Uphold Nielsen’s gold-standard history of data accuracy, neutrality, and methodological rigor across all product decisions and launches.
• Define and track KPIs across the product success dimensions: time-to-value, D30/W12 retention, expansion revenue, and compounding moat metrics.
• Implement rigorous quality assurance processes to ensure the accuracy and reliability of Nielsen’s content measurement data.
• Identify and address operational bottlenecks in development processes to improve team velocity without quality regressions.
