Remote Remote (Global)

PlayOnSports is hiring a Senior Product Manager, Video

Responsibilities

  • Own the video product end-to-end, including live streaming, player technology, camera integrations, video quality, and in-stream experience
  • Lead and partner with a team of engineers to deliver high-quality, reliable video experiences
  • Drive measurable business outcomes such as subscriber retention, viewer engagement, and streaming cost efficiency
  • Make it easy and compelling for schools and producers to stream events on the platform
  • Elevate the viewing experience to delight and retain subscribers
  • Balance technical depth, business impact, and customer needs in product decisions
  • Build strong credibility with engineering by going deep on streaming architecture and systems
  • Develop clear, data-backed business cases and influence executive stakeholders
  • Partner closely with marketing and growth teams to drive adoption and usage, not just feature delivery
  • Work closely with schools, producers, and partners to understand barriers to getting more events streamed on our platform, and build product solutions that lower those barriers across both automated and manual production workflows
  • Raise the bar on video quality for subscribers, from stream stability to startup time to the richness of the in-stream experience, and tie those improvements to measurable engagement and retention outcomes
  • Own video quality as a measurable discipline - define the bar, instrument it, and connect it to retention impact
  • Lead the roadmap for video capture, video platform, and in-stream experience initiatives
  • Build and defend business cases for new video investments, grounded in subscriber economics and cost-per-stream analysis
  • Partner with marketing and growth on go-to-market for every major video launch - adoption metrics are part of the plan from day one, not an afterthought
  • Prototype and pressure-test ideas before committing engineering cycles - you ship rough working versions, not just specs
  • Represent the video product in leadership conversations with fluency in both the technical and financial dimensions

Requirements

  • 5+ years in video, streaming, or media technology product roles
  • Deep familiarity with streaming infrastructure: HLS, encoding pipelines, CDN tradeoffs, player SDKs, latency optimization
  • Experience owning P&L-adjacent decisions or building business cases that directly influenced company strategy
  • Track record in subscription or consumer businesses where retention and activation are first-class metrics
  • Demonstrated ability to drive product adoption post-launch, partnering with marketing or growth teams on go-to-market
  • You build your own models and analyses. You don't wait for a data team to tell you what's working
  • Experience in environments where speed matters and perfect is the enemy of shipped
  • Comfortable using AI tools to accelerate your workflow - from building prototypes and running analyses to pressure-testing ideas - and willing to question whether traditional PM artifacts like PRDs are the best way to drive outcomes

Benefits

  • Multiple medical insurance plans to choose from
  • Dental, vision life and disability insurance
  • Employee Emergency Fund
  • Company equity (stock options)
  • Open PTO policy
  • 401K plan with company match
  • Hybrid/flexible work environment
