Senior Product Manager
Poki
Web-based gaming platform for players
Poki is a fast-growing tech scale-up on a mission to build the ultimate online playground for casual web games. We have over 100 million monthly players and a thriving community of 500+ game developer teams. We believe sustainable advertising is the best way to keep high-quality games free and accessible across devices. As our Senior Product Manager for Monetisation & Adtech, you'll define how advertising works on Poki for players, developers and advertisers.
What this job is about
You'll own the product strategy for advertising and in-game monetisation on the Poki platform. That includes improving revenue per player and per impression, and evolving our in-game ad formats and integrations. It also means improving our SDK and ad stack, and shaping how advertisers interact with our supply. You'll collaborate across engineering, developer relations, data and business teams. Together you'll ship improvements that help developers earn money, advertisers reach relevant audiences, and players enjoy a great free-to-play experience.
Your work will directly affect 100 million monthly players, 500+ developers and global advertisers. You'll own a critical revenue pillar for the company and build deep knowledge of multi-sided platform dynamics and adtech economics. You'll join a diverse, talented and self-motivated team where autonomy is real, bureaucracy is minimal and experimentation never stops. There's no formal hierarchy, and you'll have a high degree of personal responsibility and freedom.
