About the role

FOX is seeking a Staff Product Manager, Emerging Technology to define, prototype, and scale next-generation AI-powered products and platforms across FOX’s media, technology, and business ecosystem. This role will focus on emerging technologies, generative AI systems, retrieval-augmented generation, agentic workflows, computer vision, forecasting and predictive modeling, data-driven insights platforms, and intelligent automation.

Responsibilities

  • Define product vision, strategy, and roadmaps for emerging technology initiatives, including AI-native products, platform capabilities, intelligent workflows, and data-driven systems
  • Lead discovery, prototyping, and pilot efforts to validate emerging technologies and move high-potential concepts toward scalable production solutions
  • Translate advances in generative AI, LLMs, RAG, computer vision, multimodal learning, and agentic systems into practical product capabilities for media, business, and technology use cases
  • Partner closely with engineering, machine learning, data science, design, and business teams to define system requirements, APIs, services, workflows, and success metrics
  • Guide the development of intelligent systems that reason over structured and unstructured data, automate complex workflows, and generate actionable insights
  • Identify opportunities to modernize internal platforms, operational tools, content workflows, and business processes through platformization and intelligent automation
  • Develop product requirements, briefs, decision frameworks, and technical narratives that align cross-functional teams around complex and evolving initiatives
  • Drive experimentation and measurement plans to evaluate the impact of AI-powered products on efficiency, quality, revenue, productivity, user experience, and business outcomes
  • Ensure AI and data-driven systems meet standards for reliability, safety, observability, performance, trust, and responsible use in real-world environments
  • Partner with stakeholders across FOX to prioritize opportunities, communicate tradeoffs, manage ambiguity, and drive alignment from concept through delivery
  • Act as a hands-on product leader by shaping architectures, prototypes, workflows, data requirements, and product experiences in close collaboration with technical teams
  • Foster a culture of responsible innovation, technical rigor, curiosity, and continuous learning across product and partner teams

Requirements

  • Significant product management experience leading complex digital, platform, data-driven, or AI-enabled products from discovery through delivery
  • Demonstrated ability to define product strategy and roadmaps for ambiguous, emerging, or technically complex product areas
  • Strong technical fluency with modern AI and machine learning concepts, including large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings, vector databases, prompt engineering, evaluation strategies, and applied ML services
  • Experience building or guiding products that incorporate machine learning, AI, automation, data platforms, or intelligent decisioning systems in production environments
  • Ability to work closely with engineering, machine learning, and data teams to translate technical constraints into product tradeoffs, requirements, and execution plans
  • Comfort contributing directly to product definition through prototypes, technical specs, workflow diagrams, service requirements, APIs, or close pairing with engineering teams
  • Strong analytical mindset, with experience defining success metrics, evaluating product impact, and using data to guide prioritization and iteration
  • Proven ability to operate across ambiguity, balancing long-term strategic direction with execution-level detail
  • Excellent communication and influence skills, with the ability to align technical and non-technical stakeholders around complex ideas
  • Strong product judgment and systems thinking, with the ability to identify scalable platform opportunities across teams, workflows, and business needs

Qualifications

  • Nice to have, but not a dealbreaker:
  • Experience working in media, streaming, sports, entertainment, advertising technology, or large-scale digital platforms
  • Familiarity with ad tech, monetization systems, campaign workflows, audience insights, pricing, forecasting, or yield optimization
  • Familiarity with sports media workflows, highlights systems, live data, content tagging, video understanding, or editorial operations
  • Experience guiding build vs. buy decisions for AI infrastructure, data platforms, or emerging technology solutions
  • Exposure to privacy-preserving data collaboration, clean rooms, identity systems, or measurement frameworks
  • A habit of drawing inspiration from adjacent industries, including enterprise SaaS, fintech, prediction markets, creator tools, and AI-native productivity platforms, to inform product strategy and design
