Director of Product, Content Intelligence & Growth

Culture at Scribd, Inc.

We support a culture where our employees can be real and be bold; where we debate and commit as we embrace plot twists; and where every employee is empowered to take action as we prioritize the customer.

We believe the best work happens when individual flexibility is balanced with meaningful community connection. Scribd Flex empowers employees to choose the workstyle and location that support their best performance, while committing to intentional in-person moments that strengthen collaboration and culture. Occasional in-person attendance is required for all Scribd, Inc. employees, regardless of location.

Content is the foundation of everything we build at Scribd, Inc. Our UGC corpus—more than 400 million user-uploaded documents, distinct from the rights-protected premium catalogs behind Everand and Fable—powers the consumer experience on Scribd and Slideshare and differentiates our search and discovery.

The Content pillar is the team responsible for that asset. It spans three connected areas—trust & safety (protecting the corpus), understanding (knowing it), and supply (growing it)—each with dedicated product and engineering leadership, embedded analysts, and applied ML capability.

We have high standards, give real feedback, and always bias toward action. Everyone owns their work end-to-end. There's high trust, low hand-holding, and a genuine expectation that you'll push the people around you toward sharper thinking and better outcomes.

We celebrate wins, learn from our losses, and laugh through both.

We're hiring a Director of Content Intelligence & Supply to own knowing our UGC corpus and growing it as an asset. This is a new role, and it comes at a moment when content has become central to our strategy: the UGC corpus powers our consumer products and feeds search and discovery.

You'll bring content intelligence and content supply under one point of leadership—connecting what we know about the corpus (classification, metadata, quality, gaps) with the decisions about how we grow it. Today those efforts run in different parts of the org; your job is to run them as one portfolio with one roadmap. We build products that turn information into understanding, grounded in trusted human-created sources—and we own the data structure and intelligence that make a corpus this large useful.

This role reports to the Chief Product Officer. You'll inherit an established team—a content understanding program with its own charter and dedicated engineering squad, and a UGC supply squad that owns the end-to-end contributor experience—with room to shape the org's direction, structure, and future growth.

We're looking for a product leader with real data fluency: probably not a traditional consumer product manager, but someone with a foot in the data science world—as comfortable interrogating a classification model as running a product review—who gets excited about turning a 400-million-document UGC corpus into a strategic asset.

• Own the content understanding roadmap: classification, enrichment, metadata, and quality across the UGC corpus.
• Drive corpus gap analysis: where the corpus is deep, where it’s thin, and how user-generated and partner content behave differently.
• Make the corpus legible—to our own products (search, discovery, recommendations) and to the teams and systems that build on it.
• Set direction for classification and corpus-analysis work with credibility, in close partnership with applied ML, engineering, and data science teams.

• Own UGC supply end to end: uploads, conversions, and the supply-side user experience. The people who add content to our platforms are your customer.
• Unify content acquisition strategy: set priorities across user-generated supply, partnerships, and other related programs that today run independently—coordinating the strategy while execution stays with the teams closest to it.
• Connect supply to demand: partner with the consumer product orgs so the corpus grows where it creates the most value for readers, learners, and subscribers.

• Own the AI product foundation of our UGC corpus:…
