This role lives between revenue operations and yield optimization. You own the health of our OpenRTB exchange business for in-app inventory on platforms such as Limelight and TeqBlaze: supply and demand endpoints, QPS and traffic shaping, floors and margins, and reporting accuracy.
Every second, bid requests arrive from app supply partners and go out to DSPs. You are the person who knows which number moved, why, and what to do about it. With 2+ years in programmatic, you'll run this independently from day one. You report into Revenue Operations and work closely with Tech, Supply and Demand Partnerships.
What You'll Take Charge Of
Monitor, Analyze & Escalate (core focus)
Track the exchange funnel daily: QPS, bid rate, win rate, timeout rate, fill rate, eCPM, revenue and margin.
Tell demand problems from supply and delivery problems: missing signals (IFA, bundle ID, geo), low-quality traffic, render failures and VAST errors.
Reconcile platform reporting against partner reports and chase discrepancies to root cause.
Own escalations end to end, prepare partner stats for QBRs and document your work in Jira.
oRTB Platform Operations
Configure and maintain supply and demand endpoints to OpenRTB 2.5/2.6 specs.
Manage QPS allocation and traffic shaping so bid requests go where they earn.
Tune filters, floors, margins and deal IDs/PMPs, measuring the revenue, margin and fill impact of every change.
App Inventory Quality
Maintain app-ads.txt, sellers.json and schain, and cut duplicate or unauthorized paths.
Validate bundle IDs and monitor IVT with tools such as Pixalate or HUMAN.
Understand how ATT/IDFA, GDPR/TCF and COPPA affect yield.
New Demand & Yield Testing
Evaluate and onboard new DSPs and supply partners on revenue potential versus effort.
Design structured yield tests with Tech: QPS reallocation, floor changes, new demand on limited traffic.
Use bid-level data to surface under-monetized bundles, geos and formats.
What We're Looking For
Must have
3+ years in programmatic yield, ad exchange operations, or SSP/DSP account operations, with a focus on in-app inventory.
Hands-on experience with Limelight, TeqBlaze or a similar oRTB platform.
Working command of OpenRTB: you can read a bid request and response and spot what's missing or wrong.
Fluency in exchange metrics and a high bar for reporting accuracy.
Nice to have
In-app mediation and bidding experience (AppLovin MAX, Unity LevelPlay, AdMob).
CTV app monetization: ad pods and SSAI.
SQL or a BI tool for bid-level analysis.
What's In It for You
A technology and media company with numerous branches worldwide (e.g. Paris, New York, São Paulo, Milan and Berlin)
Flexible workplace and working hours
A friendly and inclusive culture with equal opportunities for everyone
A place to grow and take initiative
Team events, winter parties, and more to celebrate our successes together
