Overview

Instacart Ads powers one of the industry's leading retail media networks, helping brands, CPGs, and retailer partners reach shoppers with relevant, effective advertising across the Instacart platform. As part of the Ad Product team, you'll own the Formats domain, where we place 0→1 bets that fuel double-digit growth for Ads and keep CPGs and new advertiser types engaged.

You'll sit at the intersection of CPGs, retailers, and customers, shaping new ad experiences across multiple user-facing surfaces. Your portfolio spans new advertiser, formats innovation, and in-store experiences. You'll partner closely with XFN stakeholders, our Online Grocery team, and external technology partners. If you're energized by taking ambiguous ideas from zero to one, fluent in ad formats and user experience, and comfortable managing partners and vendors, this is the role for you.

About the job

  • Serve as the primary product partner to sales teams focused on New Advertiser types, including payment providers, upper-funnel non-endemic advertisers, and ad tech providers, with the goal of scaling non-endemic into a significant revenue line.
  • Partner with sales teams focused on formats such as savings, in-store, and AI solutions.
  • Define the 0→1 strategy for each bet, then own execution while aligning cross-functional teams across Instacart.
  • As these bets mature, take on increasing strategic ownership: define and prioritize the next set of incremental bets across the Instacart Ads ecosystem.
  • Communicate tradeoffs, progress, and results clearly to senior stakeholders, including the GM of Ads.

About You

Minimum qualifications

  • Experience in product management for ad formats, with a strong understanding of user-facing ad experiences. [TBD — finalize years of experience with recruiter]
  • Track record of launching user-facing products and managing trade-offs between users and advertisers
  • Experience managing partners and vendors, including external technology providers.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills across sales, engineering, and cross-functional teams.

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience with performance advertising products.
  • Experience taking new products from 0→1 in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
  • Background in ad tech, retail media, or a closely related domain.
