At MNTN, we put our people first, full stop. This allows our company culture to be defined by our team members and their shared values, like trust, ambition, quality, radical honesty, and compassionate leadership. It’s why we all really love working for the Hardest Working Software in Television™ (and also why we were named one of Ad Age’s Best Places To Work in 2026.)

We pride ourselves on bringing unrivaled performance and simplicity to Connected TV advertising. Our self-serve technology makes running TV ads as easy as search and social, helping brands drive measurable conversions, revenue, site visits, and more. It’s what led MNTN to being named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies in 2023. You can learn more about us and everything we do by visiting https://mountain.com/.

We’re committed to innovation that empowers, not replaces. At MNTN, AI is a tool for growth, enhancing efficiency while keeping a people-first approach. Our goal is to streamline workflows and drive new solutions—without compromising the human element that makes our company great.

So if wanting to do more, own more, and make a bigger impact comes naturally to you, then you may be the person we're looking for to join us in our next stage of growth.

We're looking for a Technical Program Manager to join MNTN's Advertiser UI organization, reporting to the Director of Advertiser UI . This is a role for someone who is strongly data-driven, cares deeply about the quality of product experiences, and understands that great UI is a business driver, not a finishing touch.

You will own the program surface covering advertiser creation, authentication, and all user configurations and platform settings, some of the most consequential areas of MNTN's self-serve platform. This role will interact closely with our backend-focused teams and our reporting suite, requiring significant collaboration and communication between all. These are high-traffic, revenue-critical flows that directly shape advertiser activation, retention, and day-to-day platform engagement. Getting them right requires someone who can hold both the detail and the strategy simultaneously.

The work is technical in character. Authentication spans identity, session management, and access control. You'll need to understand how these systems work under the hood, ask the right questions of engineers, and translate complex tradeoffs into clear product decisions. This is not a coordination role. It is an ownership role.

You'll operate within a single cross-functional squad, working day-to-day with engineering managers across MNTN's UI teams. You'll partner closely with product, design, and stakeholders across the organization to maintain a roadmap that is sequenced well, clearly communicated, and consistently delivered.

What You'll Do
  • Own the authentication experience end-to-end: drive roadmap decisions across login, session management, access control, and identity flows, with a clear point of view on what needs to improve and why.
  • Translate product strategy into executable plans: work with your manager and cross-functional partners to turn high-level direction into a well-sequenced, well-understood roadmap your squad can execute against.
  • Drive delivery within your squad: manage sprint rhythms, surface blockers early, and maintain the health of execution alongside your engineering leads.
  • Identify and champion high-value UI opportunities: bring your own point of view to the product. You're not just executing requests. You're expected to identify and advocate for changes that move the business.
  • Maintain stakeholder alignment across the org: own communication of roadmap status, tradeoffs, and decisions to partners in product, design, data, and leadership so there are no surprises.
  • Use data to inform prioritization: leverage engagement metrics, retention signals, and advertiser feedback to make the case for what gets built and in what order.
  • Partner closely with engineering on technical sequencing: understand architectural constraints well enough to identify potential cross-team dependencies, make sound tradeoff decisions, and push back when a proposed approach creates downstream risk.
What Success Looks Like
  • Authentication is reliable, low-friction, and not a source of advertiser complaints or engineering incident volume.
  • Your squad operates with high execution hygiene: clear priorities, predictable delivery, and minimal re-work.
  • Stakeholders across product, design, and engineering consistently describe you as aligned, reliable, and easy to work with.
  • You have a sustained track record of shipping high-impact UI features that stakeholders across the org point to as meaningful product advancements.
  • The roadmap you own is understood and trusted across the org, with few surprises about what's coming and why.
What You'll Bring
  • 5+ years of experience in technical program management or a closely related discipline, with direct ownership of consumer-facing or self-serve product surfaces.
  • Hands-on experience managing programs across authentication, identity, or user account flows, with enough technical depth to engage credibly with engineers on tradeoffs.
  • Demonstrated fluency in front-end product delivery, including campaign management UIs, multi-step setup flows, or similarly complex interaction surfaces.
  • Technical literacy sufficient to read engineering designs, understand API and session architecture, and identify risk in proposed implementation approaches.
  • Experience working within a focused cross-functional squad, including managing relationships with engineering leads and maintaining sprint-level execution quality.
  • A track record of using engagement and retention data to inform roadmap decisions, not just report on outcomes.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize complex tradeoffs into clear recommendations for stakeholders at multiple levels.
  • An instinct for product quality. You have opinions about what makes a great UI experience and the credibility to advocate for them.
  • Adtech experience is a plus, but not a requirement.
