ABOUT THIS ROLE
Audible is seeking a Senior Product Manager to define and build key technologies that support Audible's catalog ingestion and publishing functions, driving automation and optimal operational efficiencies and exceptional experiences for our customers, creators, and internal teams. This role focuses on developing scalable, automated content ingestion pipelines and publishing systems that power Audible's catalog across 1P, 2P, and 3P audiobooks and podcasts. When manual intervention is required, our products empower content operations teams to efficiently manage ingestion workflows, resolve processing exceptions, and ensure content reaches customers quickly through human-centered tooling. You'll join a global team whose innovations and strategies shape how content flows from creators and partners into Audible's catalog and is published across Audible's storefront and external endpoints. You'll partner closely with engineering teams, applied data scientists, product managers, content operations, and UX designers to create, execute, and iterate on systems that address the needs of content providers, internal operators, and downstream consumers of Audible's catalog. The Senior Product Manager is an individual contributor role.
