Additional Information

The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It's why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It's why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it's why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it's worth paying for. Mission Overview & Responsibilities : The Publishing group at the New York Times aims to create a robust content management system for all of the Times: one that empowers development teams to build and evolve innovative experiences with speed and agility, and one that empowers editors and creators with a unified and interconnected suite of tools they can use with confidence to make the world's best journalism. We are looking for a curious and visionary senior technical product manager to lead the development of systems and workflows related to the production of media: images, videos, and audio. As a Senior Technical Product Manager, you will establish a vision for these systems. This vision will take into account industry trends, our goals, the needs of internal product development teams, and the needs of the journalists who use our CMS tools. You'll set strategy that pulls together distributed media workflows into centralized systems on our publishing platform. You'll provide direction for and oversee the execution of a product roadmap, leading a team of engineers. This is a hybrid role based in New York City.
