- Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with the Product and R&D teams to provide feedback on the Appnext Manager dashboard, helping to streamline tools for programmatic direct sales.
Qualifications:
- 2-4 years of experience in AdTech, specifically in Supply-Side Platform (SSP) management, Publisher Development, or Monetization.
- Industry Knowledge: Deep understanding of mobile in-app advertising ecosystems, including programmatic demand, waterfall, and real-time bidding (RTB).
- Technical Aptitude: Ability to understand basic API integrations and SDK reporting. Familiarity with CPI (Cost Per Install) campaigns and direct inventory management.
