Overview Own 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. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Set 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 to continue, change, or stop. Treat web as the reach and discovery engine for CBS Sports. Grow organic and direct traffic, sharpen high-intent surfaces like gametrackers and scores, and turn anonymous visitors into registered users. Own the role web plays in the broader portfolio: growing registered users at scale and converting web audiences into sticky products like the CBS Sports App. Prototype to think. We build working prototypes to remove ambiguity, test ideas with real fans, and learn before we commit. You'll use tools like Claude and Cursor to make concepts tangible, iterate on what you learn, and arrive at a better strategy because you've held the thing in your hand. Coach and develop 1 to 2 PMs through structured feedback, calibration, and deliberate growth planning. Partner with design and engineering directors on cross-squad alignment, delivery cadence, and how we evolve our process. Partner with editorial to make web the place where great storytelling and great product meet. Represent product to executive leadership. Turn fan behavior, competitive dynamics, and product performance into a clear narrative that builds trust.

How We Build (The Builder Culture) We'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 it 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 ideas tangible, test them with users, and learn before we commit. Designers do the same. Engineers ship with AI as a
