At Pocket, we’ve seen exponential growth in content consumption, category expansion, and user scale - further strengthening our ambition to build the world’s largest audio entertainment ecosystem. Backed by long-term capital and a transparent product vision, we are now focused on bringing in the next generation of leaders who can shape our content engine with both creativity and analytical rigor.

We operate across diverse genres and markets, solving complex challenges that have no playbook. This role is for someone who can lead a category end-to-end: transforming raw stories into scalable IP, driving commissioning strategy, and ensuring only high-potential content makes it into our slate. Success requires navigating ambiguity, partnering cross-functionally with performance, creative, and business teams, and making decisions grounded in data, not opinion. Thriving at Pocket demands high IQ and EQ, commercial thinking, and the ability to influence senior leadership while maintaining a builder’s mindset.

We offer full ownership:



from testing and validating ideas to green-lighting stories that will shape the future of our platform. We don’t expect past experience in identical problems—what matters is adaptability, intellectual humility, analytical sharpness, and the ability to break unprecedented problems into structured, solvable components.

Here's what we're solving for:
We’re solving for a content commissioning engine that drives measurable business growth, not just higher volume. The role is to identify, adapt, and scale stories with the highest potential ROI across diverse categories.

Data-driven commissioning: Replace subjective judgment with rigorous testing—small-scale content pilots on Meta measure both creative appeal and Cost Per Install (CPI). Use data to separate 10x winners from low-return concep
