LET’S GO!\nDirector, Product Management (CBS Sports Web)\nLocation: Nashville, TN / New York, NY / Los Angeles, CA Type: Full-Time, On-Site Org: CBS Sports Digital, Product, Design & Engineering\n#WeAreParamount on a mission to unleash the power of content… you in?\nWe've got the brands, we've got the stars, we've got the power to achieve our mission to entertain the planet. Now all we're missing is\nYOU. Becoming a part of Paramount means joining a team of passionate people who not only recognize the power of content but also\nenjoy a touch of fun and uniqueness. Together we co-create moments that matter, both for our audiences and our employees, and aim to\nleave a positive mark on culture.\nOverview\nOwn the product direction for one of the largest sports sites on the internet. CBSSports.com is the front door to CBS Sports for tens of millions of fans. It is where scores, live gametrackers, news, fantasy, and betting come together during the biggest moments in sports: the NFL, March Madness, The Masters, college football, Champions League, and more. This role owns the product strategy for the full web experience. You will lead a small PM team, work directly with design and engineering leads across squads, and stay close to the work. This is a player-coach role. You set the direction, and you're in the details.\nResponsibilities include, but are not limited to:\nSet product strategy for CBSSports.com and translate it into clear priorities teams can act on. Own the web plan. Decide what we're building, sequence the work, balance risk, track outcomes, and make the hard calls on what tocontinue, change, or stop.\n\nTreat web as the reach and discovery engine for CBS Sports. Grow organic and direct traffic, sharpen high-intent surfaces likegametrackers and scores, and turn anonymous visitors into registered users.\n\nOwn the role web plays in the broader portfolio: growing registered users at scale and converting web audiences into sticky productslike the CBS Sports App.\n\nPrototype to think. We build working prototypes to remove ambiguity, test ideas with real fans, and learn before we commit. You'll usetools like Claude and Cursor to make concepts tangible, iterate on what you learn, and arrive at a better strategy because you've held\nthe thing in your hand.\n\nCoach and develop 1 to 2 PMs through structured feedback, calibration, and deliberate growth planning.\nPartner with design and engineering directors on cross-squad alignment, delivery cadence, and how we evolve our process.\nPartner with editorial to make web the place where great storytelling and great product meet.\nRepresent product to executive leadership. Turn fan behavior, competitive dynamics, and product performance into a clear narrative that builds trust.\nHow We Build (The Builder Culture)\nWe've moved past feature factories, PRDs, and slow-motion handoffs. We work in small, cross-functional squads with fixed timeboxes, clear ownership, and a focus on outcomes over output. When we need to figure out whether an idea works, we build a prototype and put\nit in front of fans. The goal is not a finished feature. It's removing ambiguity fast enough to make better decisions. AI is how we make this possible. PMs prototype in code using tools like Claude and Cursor. Not to ship production features, but to make\nideas tangible, test them with users, and learn before we commit. Designers do the same. Engineers ship with AI as a pair programmer. We build internal tools with prompts when a workflow can be automated. This is the operating expectation, and as a Director, you'll\nmodel it and push what's possible further. The result is that we move faster than our size suggests. Small teams, short cycles, real signals from real fans, and the autonomy to act on what you learn without waiting for permission.\nWhat success looks like:\nThe web product strategy is coherent.\nPeople across the organization understand what we're building, why, and what we're choosing notto do. \n\nWeb reliably grows reach, grows registered users, and feeds the rest of the portfolio.\nThe funnel from anonymous visitor to registered user to sticky-product user gets measurably stronger.\nHigh-intent surfaces like gametrackers and scores get sharper and convert better, especially during tentpole events when traffic peaks. Ideas are tested before they're committed.\nTeams prototype, learn from fans, and start building with real clarity.\nFewer false starts, less rework.PMs on your team grow their craft visibly and operate with stronger judgment over time.\n\nPrioritization decisions are defensible, tied to measurable fan impact, and adjusted when the signal says so.\nStakeholders trust your perspective because you bring receipts, not just opinions.\nBasic Qualifications\n10+ years in product, with meaningful time in a leadership role. Consumer web at scale, ideally high-traffic and real-time. You've owned the strategy, shipped against it, and developed other PMs.\nAdditional Qualifications\nStrong prioritization instincts. You can hold site-level strategy and problem-level detail in the same day.\nFluency with the levers that move large-scale web: discovery and SEO, performance, identity and authentication, and conversion.\nComfort prototyping in code with AI tools. You don't need to be an engineer, but you can use Claude or Cursor to build something testable and learn from it.\nFluency with product analytics, experimentation, and outcome accountability.\nAn AI-native working style. You already use LLMs to think through problems and accelerate your own work, and you have a point of viewon how AI changes what a product team can do.\n\nCBS Sports, a year-round leader in cross-platform sports coverage, broadcasts a portfolio of events on the CBS Television Network, including THE NFL ON CBS; college football, including the Big Ten ON CBS; college basketball, including the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship; golf, including The Masters®, PGA Championship and PGA TOUR; soccer, including the UEFA Champions League and NWSL; and CBS SPORTS SPECTACULAR.\nIn addition, the division includes CBS SPORTS NETWORK, the 24-hour cable home of CBS Sports which televises live sports programming throughout the year, including college football and basketball games, UEFA Champions League and Europa League action, Italy's Serie A matches, Concacaf national team competitions, as well as a full slate of original programming and studio coverage.\nCBS Sports also delivers an extensive lineup of global soccer coverage on Paramount+, including every UEFA club competition match, all Serie A matches as well as Concacaf national team competitions, and produces INSIDE THE NFL for Paramount+.
