Job Description:
Mattel Digital is looking for a Product Manager to help build, launch, scale, and monetize digital experiences, platforms, and services that extend Mattel IP into meaningful fan, family, and collector engagement. This role sits on the Digital Experiences team and will help shape product strategy, build business cases, align senior leaders around investment decisions, bring new 0-to-1 opportunities to market, and grow established platforms into larger digital businesses. The Product Manager will own and develop digital opportunities that create value for Mattel beyond one-time campaign activations. This includes fan engagement products, physical-to-digital extensions, collector utilities, subscription or service concepts, cross-brand digital platforms, and reusable experience infrastructure. The role requires strong product judgment, comfort with ambiguity, disciplined execution, business case development, executive communication, and the ability to partner across brands, marketing, design, production, engineering, legal, finance, data, DTC, gaming, and external vendors. This role requires a Product Manager who is comfortable with both sides of digital product ownership: creating new products from zero to one and operating established platforms with a clear path to growth, scale, and monetization.
Qualifications:
5+ years of product management experience building consumer-facing digital products, apps, platforms, services, ecommerce experiences, fan communities, subscriptions, or other digital experiences. Demonstrated success taking digital products from concept through launch and post-launch growth, with clear examples of business impact, user adoption, engagement, retention, monetization, or operational improvement. Strong product strategy skills, including the ability to define customer problems, size opportunities, shape MVPs, prioritize tradeoffs, create roadmaps, and make clear recommendations with incomplete information. Experience owning product outcomes and connecting product decisions to business results, including revenue, margin, engagement, retention, customer acquisition, first-party data, brand value, and operating leverage. Proven ability to develop business cases, funding recommendations, executive materials, or strategic decision narratives for new or growing digital products. Strong analytical judgment, including the ability to define success metrics, interpret product performance, identify actionable insights, and recommend whether to scale, optimize, pivot, pause, or sunset an initiative. Excellent cross-functional leadership and communication skills, with the ability to align creative, technical, business, and brand stakeholders. Strong execution discipline, including planning, dependency management, vendor coordination, launch readiness, risk tracking, and follow-through. Experience working in agile product development environments and managing products through discovery, launch, lifecycle management, and post-launch optimization. Ability to create concise, high-quality written materials for different audiences, from working teams to senior leaders.
