Vidyard delivers solutions that will transform the relationship between buyers and sellers. By leveraging our understanding that we gained in video messaging, we have set out to take communication between buyers and sellers to the next level. We're passionate about elevating our customers, our teammates, our communities, and ourselves.

About the Role

Vidyard is looking for a Director, Product to join our Product team. Reporting to the CTO, you will lead a team of user obsessed product managers. You will own the product roadmap of new features and partner with teams across the business, including Engineering, Design, Marketing and others to build solutions that transform how buyers and sellers interact.

To achieve this, our team focuses on three core objectives: enhancing the user experience through innovation using AI, making our product more user-friendly and intuitive, and improving our tools, approaches, and system to consistently build customer value.

The team that you hire, mentor, and lead will be instrumental in capturing the understanding of our customer’s challenges and transforming those opportunities into great product experiences and business outcomes. With a great opportunity in front of Vidyard and a passion for solving our customer’s problems, your innovation and leadership will determine our success.

This is a remote role open to candidates located in Canada or the United States.

What You’ll Work On

  • Prioritize areas of focus by using quantitative and qualitative data and collaborating with the business leaders to make sure the team is constantly focused on the most important problems.
  • Make tough decisions about product features, pricing, and go-to-market strategy. There will always be trade-offs to consider, and you must be able to make the best decisions for the long-term success of the product.
  • Staying up-to-date on our competitors and technology. The product landscape is constantly changing, so it's important that we stay ahead of the curve.

We value candidates who own it, and if you’re relentlessly resourceful too, you might be exactly who we are looking for.
