A little about the Yahoo APM Program:

Over the course of two years, you will drive the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for one team. This will allow you to become specialized in your product area and have more ownership to build & launch impactful features.

APMs work on products like Yahoo Sports, Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Finance, Yahoo News, Yahoo Search, Yahoo Homepage and Yahoo for Business. Yahoo APMs have driven mobile app releases, defined innovative advertising formats, and improved platforms that users rely on every day.

Your day to day:

• Drive the overall product vision, strategy, roadmap, and requirements for your product.
• Synthesize and prioritize user needs and own the narrative of what problem should be solved, for whom, how, and why it matters.
• Build consensus and work collaboratively with engineering, design, and other key stakeholders.
• Define success metrics and analyze performance, balancing quantitative and qualitative insights to drive decisions and iterate quickly.
• Get up to speed quickly in new domains, becoming a subject matter expert who leads by example.

What we look for:

• Product sense: Strong product sense with an ability to envision technology solutions that address user needs and market opportunities.
• Analytical ability: Excellent problem solving and analytical skills: you should be able to break down open-ended problems and move forward in the face of ambiguity.
• You are data-driven, and you have basic database query skills so that you can analyze data on your own and not be dependent on others to perform analysis.
• Leadership: Experience executing projects and partnering with cross-functional teams to drive high-quality results. Embrace the challenges that come with a fast-paced, creative, and innovative technology environment.
• Flexible with ambiguity & change: You are a problem solver and a problem finder before that. You love working on challenging, ambiguous, and unstructured problems, and are able to pivot with new prioritizations.
• Communication skills: Strong written and oral communication skills in order to work effectively with engineering, design, and cross-functional teams
• Fewer than 2 years of post-college work experience.

Nice to haves:

• Bachelor’s, or Master’s in Computer Science, Finance / Economics, Mathematics / Statistics, Communications, Political Science, Business, Marketing, Cognitive Science / Psychology or related field.
• Technical Understanding: Past technical experience, or equivalent technical understanding. You should know what it takes to build tech products and drive technical decisions with engineers.
