Product Manager, API & Developer Experience
ComcastAbout the role
Job Summary
Freewheel’s Buyer Cloud has created the most powerful, extensible programmatic advertising API, purpose-built for sophisticated CTV and video buyers who need more than off-the-shelf DSP solutions. Our platform gives agencies and advanced buyers direct access to premium CTV and video inventory through best-in-class APIs. We’re looking for a Product Manager to take our API and developer experience strategy to the next level.Job Description
What You’ll Do
You'll own key aspects of our API and SDK strategy and execution, working as the bridge between our technical customers, engineering team, and business stakeholders. This means working directly with technical buyers to understand their needs, translating those into API requirements, and helping shape our versioning and developer experience strategy.
You'll help define how agencies and buyers integrate and build with our platform from REST API design to SDK architecture to developer documentation.
You'll contribute to decisions on API versioning, deprecation strategies, and backward compatibility. You'll help determine what capabilities we expose and how, balancing power and flexibility with usability.
Who You Are
Maybe you’re currently a product manager, but you may be an engineer or developer advocate who's ready to move into product. You love reading API documentation and understand it well. You've worked with APIs and SDKs enough to have opinions about what makes them good or bad.
You understand developer platforms - what makes developers choose one platform over another, how to build for extensibility, and how to create tools that technical users actually want to adopt. Maybe you've contributed to open source projects and understand what it takes to build technical products that developers respect.
You can talk to engineers about implementation details, then turn around and explain the business value to stakeholders. You understand REST principles, versioning strategies, SDK design patterns, and developer experience. You're comfortable with technical customers who will push you on design decisions.
You think in terms of platforms, not features. You understand that good API design today means less pain tomorrow. You're ready to learn when to say no to keep the platform coherent, and when flexibility is worth the complexity.
What We're Looking For
2-4 years of hands-on experience building, designing, or managing APIs/SDKs (engineering, developer relations, or technical PM backgrounds all work)
Developer platform experience or strong interest - you've built or want to build tools/platforms that other developers use
Solid understanding of RESTful API design, versioning strategies, and SDK architecture
Experience working with technical customers or developer communities
Ability to write clear technical documentation and requirements
Comfortable with advertising technology or eager to learn it quickly (we'll teach you the ad tech specifics)
Bonus Points
Open source contributions or project maintenance
Experience with programmatic advertising platforms or DSPs
Background in developer advocacy or technical partnerships
Understanding of video/CTV advertising ecosystem
Built or contributed to SDKs or libraries that external developers use
What Makes This Role Different
This isn't a typical PM role where you're three layers removed from the technical decisions. You'll be in the weeds on API design, working directly with engineering on implementation, and having architecture conversations with customers. If you want to shape a platform that technical people actually respect and use, this is it
Employees at all levels are expected to:
- Understand our Operating Principles; make them the guidelines for how you do your job.
- Own the customer experience - think and act in ways that put o
