Principal Product Manager, LevelPlay

What you'll be doing

• Help shape the product vision and future strategy for the LevelPlay mediation platform, and own the roadmap for core areas from definition and planning through launch and iteration
• Drive high-stakes platform decisions on auction mechanics, bidding vs. waterfall dynamics, network integrations, and revenue optimization, grounded in data and marketplace understanding
• Partner deeply with engineering, data science, design, and monetization teams to ship at scale, with strict latency and reliability demands
• Engage directly with top publishers and ad network partners to understand needs, validate direction, and represent the voice of the developer in strategic decisions
• Align stakeholders across Unity's Grow and Create divisions to deliver a unified experience
• Mentor and up-level PMs across the LevelPlay team, raising the bar for strategic product decision-making

What we're looking for

• Extensive product management experience, with a track record of operating at principal level or equivalent: shaping strategy, not just executing it
• Deep domain expertise in ad tech: mediation, in-app bidding, programmatic auctions, ad networks, or adjacent marketplace/monetization systems
• Demonstrated success owning platform products end to end, from definition through launch, iteration, and scale
• Strong analytical rigor, including comfort with experimentation, marketplace metrics (ARPDAU, eCPM, fill rate), and making revenue-impacting decisions under uncertainty
• Experience partnering with ML and data science teams to bring models, signals, or optimization features into production
• Exceptional stakeholder leadership: able to align executives, engineers, and external partners, and guide teams through ambiguity to impactful outcomes
• A track record of driving decisions independently and with conviction, grounded in your own analysis
• Experience in mobile gaming or with mobile developer ecosystems

You might also have

• Hands-on experience with ad mediation platforms
• Background in auction theory, machine learning-driven optimization, or real-time bidding systems
• Experience with SDK-based products and an understanding of the mobile ad lifecycle, including privacy frameworks (e.g. ATT, Privacy Sandbox), latency optimization, and network adapter strategy
