Director of Product Marketing at OpenAP LLC

The Opportunity

The industry has reached an inflection point for advanced advertising and 2025 is a defining year for OpenAP. Founded and owned by TV's largest publishers, we are today a collective of innovators who are fundamentally changing the way advertising is bought and sold on television. Our mission is to bring simplicity and scale to audience-based campaigns in data-driven video. Joining our team is a rare opportunity to join a company early and build from the ground up, playing a critical role in scaling the market for advanced TV.

Role Overview

The Director/VP of Product Marketing is a newly created position that will serve as the connective tissue in OpenAP’s go-to-market (GTM) strategy, planning and execution of our products and services as we aim to transform the streaming and data-driven video workflow for TV advertising. By joining our team, you’ll have the opportunity to build a product marketing function at a critical time for the company.

Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer, you will partner collaboratively with Product, Commercial and Senior Leadership teams to communicate the product vision and differentiation and deliver impactful narratives across multiple channels for use in articulating OpenAP’s value proposition in the marketplace. While you’ll major in product marketing, we’re a small but mighty marketing function and we’re looking for a versatile athlete who is able to flex as needed to help our team punch above our weight and contribute to the overall success of the company.

OpenAP is a virtual team with large concentrations in Los Angeles and New York City. We prefer this person be based in the LA or NYC hub, but we’re open to getting to know candidates in remote locations.
