Job Description

Versant Media’s Content and Operations group is seeking a Technical Product Manager to join our teams. This role will report to the Manager of Technical Product and support the delivery of best-in-class tools and platforms that power the accurate, timely, and compliant ingest, fulfillment, scheduling, and distribution of our content across platforms and endpoints.

You’ll serve as a core member of a cross-functional squad, driving solutions that unify asset readiness, scheduling coordination, compliance validation, and multi-platform delivery.

This role is ideal for product thinkers with hands-on experience in media workflows, a systems mindset, and a drive to reduce operational friction through technology.

• Workflow Enablement : Gather requirements from ingest, QC, packaging, scheduling, traffic, playout, and partner management stakeholders; translate needs into actionable user stories that improve orchestration, and delivery.
• Delivery Execution : Collaborate daily with engineers, designers, and QA to drive sprint planning, review, and execution.
• Operational Support : Ensure enhancements support real-world content operations, including SLA monitoring, compliance checks, scheduling accuracy, and delivery-status visibility.
• System Modernization : Contribute to the transformation from legacy tools to scalable, cloud-native solutions; help decompose monoliths into modular services.
• Automation & Intelligence : Help embed intelligent automation into tooling—such as predictive schedule and fulfillment readiness, intelligent QC, metadata validations, and anomaly detection.
