The Role

As the Senior Product Manager for the Ads ML Platform, you will hold significant ownership over the infrastructure and tools that make our ads marketplace intelligent. You will define the vision and build the roadmap for a platform that enables unparalleled engineering velocity and supports the most modern ML architectures.
You will be the bridge between complex ML systems and business outcomes. Whether it's integrating generative AI to increase developer productivity, establishing unified model-serving infrastructure, or optimizing GPU utilization, your work will directly accelerate how quickly and effectively we can ship highly‑performant ad products. If you are passionate about the intersection of platform engineering and state‑of‑the‑art ML research, this is the role for you.
Responsibilities

Define the Vision: Shape the long‑term strategy and roadmap for Reddit’s Ads ML platform, ensuring we are adopting cutting‑edge technologies (including Generative AI and LLM workflows) to stay ahead of the curve.
Accelerate Velocity: Build products and tooling that dramatically reduce friction for Machine Learning Engineers (MLEs) and Data Scientists, enabling them to train, deploy, and iterate on models faster than ever.
Cross‑Functional Leadership: Partner deeply with Engineering, Data Science, and Ads Product teams to understand their constraints, prioritize platform initiatives, and deliver scalable infrastructure.
Drive Execution and Adoption: Own key performance indicators (KPIs) around platform reliability, latency, cost‑efficiency, usage metrics, and developer productivity.
Stay Cutting‑Edge: Keep your finger on the pulse of the broader ML ecosystem. Read the latest research papers, understand emerging architectures, and determine how they can be practically applied to Reddit’s Ads ML platform.
Distill pain points, translate to requirements: Conduct regular user research with MLEs in Ranking, Creative Effectiveness and Content Understanding to convert pain points into precise product requirements and validate the needs, ensuring they align with a broader vision for the organization.
