WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR :

We're seeking a driven, senior-level Product Manager who thrives in ambiguity, learns quickly, and brings humility to complex technical landscapes-particularly those spanning infrastructure, platform scalability, and operational excellence, with security as a vital component. This role is central to advancing our efforts to build robust, adaptable systems that support a high-performance, global platform. The ideal candidate is technically fluent and systems-minded, understanding how core infrastructure and product capabilities-including but not limited to security-empower the broader mission of delivering a trusted, innovative Trade Desk experience.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING :

As a Senior Product Manager on Infrastructure, you will spearhead the development and expansion of our global platform's foundational technologies-including on-prem compute, robust storage solutions, and GPU architectures that drive high-performance workloads. Your leadership will be central to envisioning and delivering scalable infrastructure capable of supporting trillions of queries daily and powering advanced data analytics, machine learning, and media processing.

You'll own the roadmap for modernizing our platform's core systems, working closely with engineering and operations teams to install, optimize, and evolve on-prem environments. From architecting high-availability compute clusters to coordinating multi-tiered storage and integrating the latest GPU advancements, you'll ensure our infrastructure meets the demands of a rapidly growing business and unlocks new capabilities for our users.

Collaboration will be key as you partner across engineering, product & business teams, and external vendors to understand technical requirements, operational challenges, and future opportunities. By translating complex infrastructure needs into actionable strategies, you'll deliver solutions that maximize reliability, performance, and efficiency-enabling our teams to build innovative products at scale.

Success in this role means delivering enterprise-grade infrastructure that is resilient, flexible, and optimized for growth-laying the groundwork for a platform that continues to set the standard in digital advertising technology.
