About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Define and champion a bold, fan-centered product vision for how next-generation UX, seamless customer journeys, and intelligent content discovery will set Bleacher Report apart as the definitive sports destination.
Own the end-to-end product roadmap for navigation, search, and content discovery—delivering features that help fans find what they love faster, follow their teams deeper, and never miss a moment.
Redesign and optimize fan customer journeys from first launch through long-term loyalty—spanning onboarding, team/player following, personalized feeds, push engagement, and re-activation.
Lead a step-change improvement in search experience—including real-time sports query understanding, entity recognition (teams, players, games, scores), and contextually ranked results that serve fans in the moment.
Define and execute a content discovery strategy powered by AI/ML—including algorithmic feeds, trending content surfaces, related content modules, and cross-sport exploration pathways.
Partner with design to raise the bar on navigation architecture and information hierarchy, ensuring every surface—home, team pages, live coverage, and video—is intuitive and conversion-optimized.
Collaborate across functions as a connective force between editorial, engineering, design, data science, growth, and business development teams.
Translate fan research, behavioral data, and technical possibilities into crisp, actionable product requirements that balance innovation, feasibility, and measurable fan value.
Define success metrics and experimentation frameworks—driving a rigorous test-and-learn culture across engagement, retention, session depth, and discovery effectiveness.
Serve as a thought leader on responsible personalization—ensuring algorithmic systems respect fan trust, avoid filter bubbles, and uphold editorial integrity.
