The ideal candidate combines analytical curiosity, structured problem-solving, and cross-functional leadership skills to drive the development and scaling of data products that enhance distribution effectiveness and strategic decision-making across regions and multiple lines of business. This candidate should blend product management rigor, technical fluency, and strong domain knowledge of content distribution with a forward-looking interest in how data, AI, and analytics can shape creative, operational, and commercial outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage and enhance dashboards and reporting tools that measure title performance, territorial sales, platform consumption, rights utilization, and revenue outcomes across windows.
• Support linear & digital distribution intelligence by defining requirements and success metrics for reporting on platform performance (e.g., Broadcast, Cable, SVOD, AVOD/FAST, EST), rights activity, and consumption analytics.
• Partner with Data Science, Data Engineering, and BI teams to ensure data reliability, rights-metadata integrity, and consistency across deal, revenue, and performance datasets.

• Collaborate with analytics partners to define and track KPIs for distribution efficiency, revenue-forecasting accuracy, windowing performance, partner/platform ROI, and content-exploitation outcomes.
• Assist with QA testing, documentation, rollout materials, and training sessions to ensure stakeholder understanding and adoption of distribution data products.
• Champion a data-driven culture, helping non-technical distribution and sales stakeholders interpret insights and make informed licensing, windowing, and monetization decisions.

• Experience delivering data or analytics products such as dashboards, automation workflows, or performance measurement tools.
• Knowledge of content distribution, rights management, and licensing analytics.

• Strong organizational skills and experience working within Agile or iterative delivery frameworks.

• Strong SQL experience, intermediate Python experience, and comfort with SDLC methods including CI/CD and automated QA.
