Brand Media Manager

Description

As Ring and Blink build the next generation of smart security, we are looking for a data-driven, strategic, and execution-focused Brand Media Lead in US & Canada. Brand Media — spanning YouTube, Audio, and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) — is a critical lever for driving awareness, consideration, and new to brand customers. In this role, you’ll operate at the intersection of precision media buying and brand storytelling, operating hands on keyboard within platforms like Google Ads for YouTube, direct IOs with key audio partners and creators, and programmatic DOOH for contextual presence. You'll shape how Ring shows up across living rooms, commutes, public spaces, and headphones—translating cultural moments, audience insights, and media innovation into measurable brand impact at scale.

As a leader on the Ring & Blink Media team, this role balances hands-on execution with high-level strategic thinking. You’ll champion experimentation, explore new technologies, and support business planning through leadership-facing documents and reporting. The ideal candidate is customer-obsessed, analytically sharp, and comfortable owning end-to-end media programs while influencing key marketing and business decisions.

You will monitor campaign pacing and platform signals, guide budget allocation decisions in real time, and translate AI-driven insights into clear actions across programmatic screens, streaming audio, and live experiences.
