Product Owner, Content Development and Production
(Job Ref #: 51544118_2)
Dear Hiring Team at NBCU:
I am excited to apply for the Product Owner – Content Development and Production role at NBCUniversal. With a unique blend of experience spanning media, entertainment, and technology, I bring a deep appreciation for the creative process and a strong track record of delivering innovative solutions that empower clients. This opportunity feels like the perfect intersection of my passions and expertise.
I started my career in the mailroom at United Talent Agency (UTA), where I humbly cut my teeth alongside high-profile talent agents, navigating the fast-paced world of entertainment. I later advanced to the desk of the Head of Business Affairs and TV Packaging, where I gained a comprehensive understanding of deal structures, content packaging, and the intricacies of bringing film and television projects to life. These formative experiences instilled in me a deep respect for the art of storytelling and the collaborative efforts that fuel the entertainment industry.
After my time at UTA, I transitioned into the technology space, eventually bringing my media expertise to Comcast, where I consulted with clients on cross-screen advertising solutions that leveraged data to optimize audience engagement across platforms. In this role, I honed my ability to translate complex business requirements into actionable strategies, ensuring that client goals aligned with product capabilities. My work required seamless collaboration between product, engineering, and business teams, an environment where I thrive.
In my previous roles, I’ve successfully:
Defined and executed product roadmaps, ensuring alignment between stakeholder goals and technical feasibility.
Managed product backlogs using JIRA, refining requirements and writing detailed user stories with measurable acceptance criteria.
Led cross-functional teams through Agile development cycles, maintaining a focus on delivering high-value solutions.
Engaged directly with clients to gather feedback and iterate quickly, ensuring continuous improvement and alignment with business objectives.
My ability to bridge the gap between creative and technical teams positions me well to drive impactful product solutions at NBCUniversal. I am passionate about delivering intuitive, reliable applications that empower users across the content development and production lifecycle, allowing them to focus on what they do best: creating world-class content.
I am eager to bring my experience, passion, and problem-solving skills to NBCUniversal’s Enterprise Product Team. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your mission of building industry-leading solutions that support your diverse portfolio of brands.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to the future of NBCUniversal.
Best regards,
Jeff Ringgenberg
