Reddit Senior Product Manager leading strategy for ML Platform and ML Understanding at Reddit. Responsible for defining vision and roadmap for shared AI foundations that improve consumer experiences.
Responsibilities
We’re looking for a senior individual contributor to lead product strategy across ML Platform and ML Understanding. Reporting to Consumer product leadership, you’ll shape the foundations that help teams build better products: from reliable, efficient model development and deployment to richer classifications and representations of content and users.
This role combines technical depth, consumer product judgment, and organizational influence. You’ll connect needs across applications, identify the investments with the greatest shared value, and align product and engineering leaders around a coherent strategy with measurable outcomes.
Set the strategy for shared AI foundations. Define a multiyear vision and prioritized roadmap spanning ML platform capabilities and content and user understanding.
Connect foundational investments to consumer outcomes. Translate needs across recommendations, search, discovery, and emerging AI experiences into clear requirements and investment priorities.
Advance content and user understanding. Guide investments in classification, taxonomies, embeddings, multimodal understanding, and representations of user interests and intent.
Improve the ML development lifecycle. Partner with engineering on capabilities for data and feature access, training, inference, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring.
Make shared capabilities useful and widely adopted. Establish clear interfaces, onboarding paths, and feedback mechanisms that help application teams build on common foundations.
Lead investment and technical tradeoffs. Align senior partners on sequencing, dependencies, and decisions involving model quality, flexibility, reliability, latency, and cost.
Define and demonstrate success. Measure platform adoption, development velocity, model and representation quality, operational efficiency, and downstream improvements in consumer experiences.
