Role Description 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. Qualifications - 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.
