From the employer’s posting
Samba’s data is only as valuable as the products built on top of it. As Product Manager, Data Products & Identity, you’ll spend most of your time turning Samba’s unique view of consumer attention into data products that solve real problems for two customer groups: brands /agencies, and publishers/platforms.
You’ll also own the Samba identity graph. Identity is the foundation that makes our Audiences, Measurement, and Data Products work, so you’ll set the roadmap for how identity is resolved, managed, matched, and activated, and make sure it keeps pace with what those products need. Working closely with engineering, data science, sales, and client success, you’ll prioritize the capabilities that create new revenue and strengthen the graph behind it.

Job description
Samba is a media intelligence company. We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about — in real time, at scale, across every screen. Our data exists with the consent of over a billion people, organized into the most complete picture of consumer attention ever built. The biggest brands in the world use that picture to make smarter decisions. We think it’s the most interesting data asset on the planet, because it’s the most culturally relevant.

Working closely with engineering, data science, sales, and client success, you’ll prioritize the capabilities that create new revenue and strengthen the graph behind it.
