Working with colleagues across Europe, Africa, the US, and Asia, you’ll expand our integration capabilities, resolve complex technical challenges, and improve the efficiency and scalability of our advertising operations.

Collaborate with internal and external engineering & technical teams across international locations to identify integration gaps, resolve complex issues, improve existing solutions, and develop scalable processes. Provide hands-on technical leadership, share expertise with team members, and establish best practices for advertiser onboarding, integration quality, documentation, and ongoing technical support.
Job Requirements: AdTech & Integration Background: Extensive experience in solutions engineering, technical integrations, or technical operations within a high-growth performance advertising or mobile AdTech ecosystem.
MMP & Attribution Mastery: Deep, hands-on expertise with Mobile Measurement Platforms (AppsFlyer strongly preferred; Adjust, Singular, & Kochava), covering app install attribution, deep linking, in-app event tracking, and postback configurations.
Web Tracking & S2S Pipelines: Proven track record architecting and implementing conversion tracking infrastructure, specifically first-party pixels, tag managers, and Server-to-Server (S2S) / Conversions APIs. Technical Fluency & Edge-Case Debugging: Deep understanding of APIs, mobile SDKs, webhooks, and tracking protocols, with the ability to troubleshoot complex integration issues.
End-to-End Onboarding Ownership: Proven track record managing client integrations from technical scoping and solution architecture through to QA, launch, and performance validation alongside commercial stakeholders.
Global Collaboration & Operational Ownership: Exceptional communication, stakeholder management, and problem-solving skills across distributed global teams and balance technical execution with broader operational ownership.
