  • This role reports to the CRO but operates primarily in the technical and partnership layer of the business.

Responsibilities

  • Partner Integrations & Ad Ops
  • Own technical integrations end-to-end with publisher partners, SSPs, GAM, DSPs, and platform technology partners - from discovery and scoping through implementation and QA
  • Lead technical working sessions with partner ad ops teams, solutions architects, and engineers to understand their infrastructure, tag architectures, and inventory configurations, then design integration approaches that fit their stack
  • Own implementation support for Gist's ad unit formats -AI-contextual formats - across web, app, and emerging AI environments

  • Build and maintain integration documentation, tag specs, API guides, and technical FAQs that accelerate partner onboarding
  • Serve as the primary feedback loop between live partner integrations and the Ads Engineering and Product teams - surfacing implementation pain points, partner requests, and ecosystem patterns that should shape the roadmap
  • Collaborate with Engineering during new ad unit development to ensure partner feasibility and real-world integration constraints are built into the spec from the start

Requirements

  • Experience working across the supply chain - publisher-side ad ops, SSP solutions, DSP integrations, or agency trading desk technical teams
  • Comfort reading and writing code at a functional level (JavaScript, Python, or similar)
  • ability to review tag implementations, debug API calls, and interpret log-level ad data without hand-holding from Engineering
  • Strong understanding of ad quality, brand safety, viewability measurement, and third-party verification (IAS, MOAT, DV) as they apply to display and emerging format types
  • Experience supporting integrations with major SSPs (Index Exchange, Magnite, PubMatic, Xandr, Teads, Sovrn, or similar) and/or DSPs
  • experience with AI ad surfaces, contextual targeting, or native ad units; familiarity with GEO/AEO concepts and AI-driven content environments
