## Job description

Kepler executes engineered marketing, where every message and ad delivered helps create a more personalized and productive relationship between brands and their consumers. We do this by acting as clients’ agency of record, as their in-house team, or some hybrid of the two – and by harnessing data and technology across all paid digital media and data-driven CRM channels.

Kepler prides itself on being a great place to work. In fact, we’re proud to share that AdAge recognized Kepler among the Best Places to Work in 2022, and Digiday named Kepler the Most Innovative Media Agency in both 2025 and 2026, validating our investment in our team, our tech, and our clients.

- We're fun. You'll work with and learn from the smartest people in the industry and have a blast doing it.

You'll work with a strong technical team to build innovative products that solve complex problems, leveraging both traditional approaches and AI-powered solutions, while ensuring our solutions meet stakeholder needs and drive meaningful adoption across the organization.

This is a NYC or Philadelphia-based hybrid role. To support team alignment, we work in-office Tuesday–Thursday, with the flexibility to work from home on Mondays and Fridays

Responsabilities:

- Build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders, including senior leadership, to understand their needs and gain buy-in for our solutions.
- Translate technical capabilities into compelling narratives that demonstrate clear business value.
- Oversee all stages of the product development lifecycle across your suite from beginning to end, delivering demonstrable, broad-scale impact to the company.
- Transform business problems into effective AI prompts and workflows, while clearly communicating both capabilities and limitations to stakeholders.
- Create and deliver presentations, demonstrations, and training materials that drive adoption.
- Partner with our engineering team to ensure our technical solutions address real business needs.
- Serve as the voice of the customer within the product development process.
- Identify and remove barriers to adoption through effective communication and relationship building.
- Develop communication strategies to highlight product wins and success stories.

Required Skills & Experience:

- 8+ years in product management with demonstrated success in shipping impactful products (experience working on internal products is a bonus).
