Digital Video Platform Manager, Selkirk TV

About Selkirk Sport, LLC At Selkirk Sport, we’re passionate about pushing the boundaries of pickleball innovation. Our mission is to Fuel the Pickleball Obsession by creating the sport’s premier products and ecosystem. As a leading global brand in premium pickleball equipment, we’re expanding our international presence and seeking top-tier talent to support our growth in the U.S. and abroad. We pride ourselves on a culture of excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Selkirk applies first-principles thinking to design scalable, process-driven systems that create lasting operational advantage. About the role Selkirk TV is our pickleball media platform, with a YouTube channel, the STV app, live event streams, and a 24/7 linear channel. We’re looking for someone to run it day to day and help grow it into a profitable media business. This is a hands-on platform role. You’ll publish and organize content, run live RTMP streams for tournaments, program the linear channel, and use analytics to improve discovery, watch time, and retention. You’ll work closely with our Content Strategy Director and with the production, creative, marketing, social, athlete relations, events, and e-commerce teams. This role is a fit if you’ve been the person responsible for a YouTube channel or streaming platform: what goes live, when, how it’s packaged, and whether it performs. This role is not a video editor, social media manager, or general content creator position. We have teams for those. This job is about platform operations, programming, and performance. What you’ll do Platform operations and publishing Run daily operations for Selkirk TV across YouTube and the STV app, including ingestion, publishing, and keeping content available. Upload, schedule, and publish video so every asset meets our format, quality, and brand standards. Write and test titles, descriptions, tags, and thumbnails to improve discoverability. Organize instructional series, original programming, and playlists so viewers can find and follow content easily. Keep the content library and digital assets accurate, versioned, and well organized. Live streaming and linear programming Coordinate live RTMP streams for pickleball events, from setup and testing through on-air monitoring. Curate and schedule programming for the 24/7 Selkirk TV linear channel. Maintain a master programming calendar tied to product launches, tournaments, and campaigns. Troubleshoot playback, stream, and publishing issues, and elevate quickly when something breaks. Performance and growth Track watch time, retention, CTR, and subscriber and viewer growth in YouTube Studio, STV app analytics, and related tools. Plan and run optimization projects aimed at audience growth, repeat viewing, and more content consumption. Find programming gaps and get more value from existing content through repackaging, redistribution, and better organization. Report regularly on performance, with clear recommendations for the Content Strategy Director and production teams. Monetization and strategy Help identify and carry out monetization opportunities across YouTube and the STV app. Contribute to the roadmap for audience growth, library value, and viewer experience. Keep an eye on industry and competitor trends for new formats, features, and distribution opportunities. Document publishing and streaming workflows so operations stay consistent as we scale. What you need Please apply only if you have all of the following: 3+ years managing a YouTube channel, streaming platform, or digital video programming, where you were responsible for publishing and performance (not just creating content for it). Hands-on YouTube Studio experience with publishing, metadata, playlists, and analytics. Experience with a video CMS or OTT/streaming app platform, and with digital asset management. Working knowledge of live streaming workflows, including RTMP setup and stream monitoring. A solid understanding of video formats, compression, and metadata best practices. A track record of using performance data to grow audience or engagement, with results you can describe. Strong organization and attention to detail on a high-volume publishing schedule.
