Are you excited about shaping the future of media monetization? We are seeking an inventive and analytical leader to define and lead Prime Video Advertising Yield. You will lead the charge in monetizing our streaming video offerings through innovative supply intelligence and yield management strategies. Your primary mission will be to design a supply segmentation and forecasting system that identifies high-, mid-, and lower-value supply cohorts across both our 1P (SVOD, Live, Linear) and our partners’ (PVC) inventory. In Broadcast television, supply value was often driven by daypart and then used to determine program scheduling, pricing, and yield. In streaming, we have not yet definite a consistent criterion for defining supply value—taking both content and audience dynamics into account. As a result, all supply is being monetized equally (aside from high-touch sponsorships). Intuitively we know that not all content holds the same value.
Once defining a scaled service for supply value and forecasting, you’ll then craft a yield strategy that align this supply value tiers to appropriate buying models and/or demand channels—e.g., Only PG Deals can buy into top-tier supply, or Local demand is only available via Auction—with the goal of maximizing service-level supply utilization.
In this role, you’ll not only help us maximize our revenue potential but also shape the future of how we balance advertiser needs with a seamless viewer experience. If you’re passionate about turning data into strategy and driving innovation in ad monetization, we’d love to have you on board.
