Why we read it this way (7)
The title carries no explicit seniority level word, so the title states no level; however, the scope (leading multiple product teams and a domain portfolio, coaching PMs, executive communication) and the 6–10+ years requirement support a Senior classification.
The role is primarily a people-management and portfolio-leadership position (Director-level, managing multiple product teams), which maps most naturally to 11-3021 Computer and Information Systems Managers. A runner-up of 15-1299 is noted because the role also requires deep hands-on AI product strategy expertise that blurs the line with a senior IC technical role.
The JD states 'Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience,' so no hard degree requirement is set.
The salary range is described as spanning all geographic markets; actual offers will vary by location. The posting also mentions variable compensation eligibility beyond base salary.
The posting mandates a 5-day in-office schedule, so remote is false. No specific city is named in the posting, but 84.51° is headquartered in Cincinnati, OH.
Skills such as MCP (model context protocol), agent patterns, responsible AI, and AI governance are called out in the required qualifications but name no specific named tool or platform — they are omitted per the instruction to list only concrete, named technologies.
B2B software experience, retail media/adtech familiarity, and a technical background (Engineering, Data Science, Architecture) are listed under Preferred Qualifications and are marked accordingly.
