About the Role

The AdTech Engineering team owns the systems at the heart of Mediavine's business - the web wrapper that runs on every publisher site, our server-to-server (s2s) ad exchange, header bidding, A/B testing infrastructure, partner integrations, and privacy/consent tooling. The work is high-leverage and highly visible: changes you ship can move revenue across thousands of sites within hours.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the team. You'll lead projects end-to-end across our JavaScript/TypeScript wrapper and our Rust-based OpenRTB server, partner with Ad Operations, SRE, Data, and Product to ship measurable improvements, and mentor your peers along the way.

What You'll Do

Lead and execute multiple concurrent projects across the AdTech stack - web wrapper features, OpenRTB server enhancements, SSP integrations, A/B test rollouts, and privacy/consent work - owning them from technical design through deployment and post-launch validation

Act as a lead on initiatives spanning multiple teams: write technical design docs, drive review discussions, coordinate with Ad Operations and SRE, and keep stakeholders informed as the work progresses (especially when scope or timelines shift)

Contribute high-quality code that requires minimal correction in review across our JavaScript/TypeScript wrapper, our Rust s2s exchange, and the supporting tooling that surrounds them

Design, ship, and analyze A/B experiments - translating revenue, viewability, and Core Web Vitals signals into actionable conclusions

Build and maintain integrations with our SSP partners, diagnose integration issues end-to-end, and improve the efficiency of our supply paths

Respond to production incidents - diagnose header bidding, GAM/MCM, or wrapper behavior with appropriate urgency, and follow up with durable fixes

Effectively leverage modern AI coding tools (Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and similar) to accelerate research, prototyping, code review, and debugging - and help the team raise its overall sophistication in their use

Provide meaningful, critical feedback in code reviews and mentor peers through pairing, design conversations, and PR review

Participate in sprint planning, scoping, and estimation, and contribute to team strategy beyond just the work in front of you

Stay current on the ad tech ecosystem - Prebid evolutions, GAM and MCM changes, privacy regulations, identity solutions, and AI-driven supply trends

Requirements

10+ years of experience in program management, product operations, delivery leadership, or related operational leadership roles

Experience operating within fast-paced, founder-led, or executive-driven product organizations

Strong understanding of software development workflows, Agile methodologies, and cross-functional product delivery processes

Demonstrated success managing complex prioritization decisions, dependencies, and organizational tradeoffs

Proven ability to influence stakeholders and drive alignment across technical and business teams

Exceptional organizational, communication, and leadership skills

Strong analytical and operational problem-solving capabilities

Experience building scalable operational processes and delivery frameworks

Ability to thrive in fast-changing environments while maintaining focus and execution discipline
