As Associate Director Advertising Integrations, you’ll own the vision, long‑term strategy and execution of the partner integrations across audience, product feed, supply, API and other integrations that power Best Buy’s onsite and offsite advertising capabilities for our growing Best Buy Ads business. You will lead how our key data assets (audiences, product data, events and other data signals) as well as our ad supply is integrated with our media and programmatic partners – DSPs, SSPs, Google, social platforms, publisher and data partnerships and others – through campaign APIs, CAPIs, audience and product feed integrations, and other integration paths.

Lead and develop a high‑performing team of product managers, providing strategic direction, coaching, and operational frameworks that elevated execution quality and accelerated delivery across multiple product lines.

Establish clear product PRDs, standards and success metrics, and investments needed for programmatic supply, partner integrations, data interoperability, and server‑to‑server event delivery.

Identify emerging opportunities and risks in the ad tech ecosystem (e.g., privacy shifts, identity changes, auction dynamics, new demand channels) and translate them into platform strategy.

Lead the end‑to‑end programmatic supply platform strategy, including OpenRTB, Prebid, server‑to‑server integrations, supply path optimization, and auction design.

Define the long‑term roadmap for CAPI‑style server‑to‑server event delivery across major platforms (e.g., Meta, Google, The Trade Desk, TikTok, Yahoo), balancing performance, privacy, and operational complexity.
