About the job

The YouTube Business Product Activation Team is responsible for bringing product to market and market to product. The team works closely with both business and product leaders to scale adoption of YouTube products across the partner and creator ecosystem.

The core capabilities of the team include: designing go-to-market strategies, identifying and prioritizing product activation opportunities across the business, ensuring launch readiness, defining and driving execution on product activation across segments, understanding needs of partners and creators to provide Product teams with market feedback and prioritization to shape product roadmaps, developing content strategy, collecting and synthesizing user feedback, and tracking performance.

The Shopping Product Activation team brings YouTube's Shopping product to market and the market to product. We answer tough questions to grow our Shopping business - For which users, creators, or partners is our Shopping product most relevant? What is the business case for the product (e.g., market value proposition, potential headroom)? What will it take to launch and land the product (e.g., GTM levers, messaging, comms)? What creators/partners do we need to prioritize and how?

Video commerce is revolutionizing the way that people decide what to buy. The YouTube Shopping team is at the forefront of this shift: connecting viewers to products they’ll love through the creators that they trust.

And, it's working: people watch over 30 billion hours of shopping-related videos on YouTube in a year. We are partnering with some of the worlds largest retailers, trusted brands, and store builders.

At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
