What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Product Manager, Ad Products position at Mozilla?

As the dominant business model of the open internet, digital advertising has enabled highly scalable and freely accessible web services and experiences to thrive. However, the model has also created many user-hostile incentives. Content producers too often prioritize engagement over information and advertisers and ad networks too often trade user information for incremental revenue.

The ideal candidate is a proven technical product manager with experience managing technical advertising products and an exceptional grasp of the ad tech ecosystem. In addition, candidates will have outstanding communication, project management skills, entrepreneurial drive, all while taking pride in contributing to a broader mission and product vision.
