You actively manage incoming requests, including campaign trafficking, troubleshooting, and partner communication
You begin optimizing yield by adjusting floors, demand allocation, and setup
You build a strong understanding of performance across key segments (os, geo, device, format)

You are independently driving yield optimization across our programmatic stack (floors, SSP mix, auction dynamics)
You ensure reliable delivery of direct campaigns, working closely with leadership
You proactively identify and fix revenue leakage, discrepancies, and performance issues
You contribute to improving our ad stack setup (latency, structure, scalability)
Within 12 months
You own yield performance end-to-end and are a key driver of revenue growth
You lead strategic optimization initiatives (e.g. new demand integrations, advanced floor strategies, format-level improvements)
You are a trusted partner to leadership on monetization strategy and execution
What we offer
A lot of responsibility and freedom. We hire experts and trust them to deliver excellent results
Flexible working hours and location. The results are what count!
Team weeks: we organize a week somewhere in Europe once or twice per year. We pay for transport and accommodation so you can have fun with the team
The opportunity to play games and claim its work
Reach out if
You have relevant experience in a similar role, either at a Publisher, Agency or an Ad Tech company
You are the most nosy and inquisitive person, wanting to understand how everything works and how you can make it better
You communicate clearly and can translate technical concepts into actionable insights
You are intelligent, efficient, pragmatic, and organized
You are comfortable working cross-functionally with product, engineering, data, and sales teams
Confident in your knowledge of programmatic advertising (e.g. DSPs, SSPs, ID solutions, CMPs) and how all the pieces fit together
You have hands‑on experience with ad servers (GAM) and programmatic setups (header bidding, SSP integrations)
You have a strong understanding of programmatic advertising (SSPs, DSPs, auctions, identity, privacy frameworks) and how the ecosystem fits together
You have an eye for detail and for the big picture. You can quickly spot patterns in large amounts of data and love some detective work if your gut tells you that something is wrong
You have a deep understanding of the advertising market, including the programmatic market
You have a genuine interest in web gaming and are excited about building monetization systems for gaming experiences.
Please note that we're looking for candidates in Europe (including the UK!), Africa or the Middle East, in order to have enough time to overlap with Europe (where most of our team is).
