Senior Product Manager, Ads Quality

We're transforming the grocery industry

At Instacart, we invite the world to share love through food because we believe everyone should have access to the food they love and more time to enjoy it together. Where others see a simple need for grocery delivery, we see exciting complexity and endless opportunity to serve the varied needs of our community. We work to deliver an essential service that customers rely on to get their groceries and household goods, while also offering safe and flexible earnings opportunities to Instacart Personal Shoppers.

Instacart has become a lifeline for millions of people, and we’re building the team to help push our shopping cart forward. If you’re ready to do the best work of your life, come join our table.

• Proven track record of defining and executing on product roadmaps in complex, data-rich environments with multiple cross-functional stakeholders.
• Strong analytical skills with experience using data to inform product decisions, measure impact, and design experiments.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working with ads machine learning models in a production environment, including relevance scoring, auction optimization, or quality filtering.
• Prior experience at a retail media network, demand-side platform, or supply-side platform, with exposure to the full advertising stack.
