Sr. Product Marketing Manager, Programmatic Ad Solutions

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

Lyft Ads is one of the fastest-growing commerce media businesses in the industry, connecting brands to a high-intent, on-the-move audience across Lyft's rider and driver networks. With proprietary first-party data spanning millions of rides and real-world consumer journeys, Lyft Ads offers advertisers a unique combination of targeting, context, and measurement that traditional platforms cannot replicate. We are building the future of mobility media — and we are looking for exceptional talent to help lead that charge.

We are seeking a strategic, highly cross-functional leader to join Lyft Ads as our Sr. Product Marketing Manager for Programmatic Ad Solutions. This is a unique and high-impact role at the intersection of programmatic advertising, revenue partnership development, and go-to-market strategy. You will own three interconnected pillars that are core to Lyft Ads' growth: building our programmatic and Audience Extension business, managing key channel and demand partners, and developing the packaging and pricing strategy that powers our sales organization.

This role requires a rare blend of strategic thinking, commercial acumen, and operational execution. You will work closely with Product, Data Science, Sales, and external partners to define how Lyft Ads goes to market — both on-platform and off — and to ensure we are positioned to win against competitors in the rapidly evolving commerce media landscape.

Responsibilities:

• Programmatic Strategy & Audience Extension Go-to-Market
  • Own the end-to-end strategy and go-to-market for Lyft Ads' programmatic business, with a primary focus on Audience Extension solutions that extend Lyft's first-party data and targeting capabilities beyond the app.
  • Develop compelling narratives, positioning frameworks, and packaging structures that clearly articulate Lyft Ads' programmatic differentiation to agencies, brands, and demand partners.
  • Define the commercial and product strategy for how Audience Extension is sold, including deal structures, influencing pricing, audience segmentation, and measurement integration.
  • Partner closely with Product Management and Data Science to ensure programmatic offerings are technically sound, scalable, and competitively differentiated.
  • Monitor programmatic market trends, competitive dynamics, and evolving buyer behavior to proactively refine strategy and maintain a leading position.
  • Drive revenue growth through programmatic channels by identifying new demand sources and structuring scalable, repeatable go-to-market motions.
