You will contribute to products powering OTT streaming, channel playout and distribution, advertising, monetization and the broader Connected TV ecosystem.

- Requirement Management: Translate business and product requirements into clear specifications, actionable tasks and acceptance criteria.
- Stakeholder Management: Maintain alignment on priorities, scope, timelines and expectations through effective communication and regular updates.
- Risk & Dependency Management: Identify bottlenecks, technical dependencies and delivery risks early, and proactively drive their resolution.
- Release & Deployment Management: Coordinate testing, UAT, CI/CD processes, release readiness, production deployments and post-release monitoring.
- Progress Tracking & Reporting: Maintain project trackers, documentation and status reports, providing clear visibility into progress and blockers.
- Quality & Process Improvement: Ensure delivery quality and continuously improve project workflows, accountability and execution efficiency.

- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to coordinate technical and non-technical teams and manage competing priorities.
- Strong ownership mindset and bias for execution: Proactively drive tasks to completion, resolve blockers and take responsibility for outcomes without constant follow-up.
- Exceptional attention to detail, with a structured approach to requirements, documentation, timelines and delivery commitments.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, planning and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and dependencies.
- Familiarity with project management tools such as Jira, Confluence, Trello or equivalent platforms.
