<h2>Who Are We?</h2> <p>RZR is an AI-native advertising platform built for the next era of performance marketing. We operate at the intersection of machine learning, programmatic media, and full-funnel mobile growth, powering campaigns for some of the world's most ambitious advertisers. Our platform is purpose-built to deliver outcomes at scale, not just impressions.</p> <p>We are a team of builders, operators, and technologists who believe the advertising industry is overdue for a fundamental rethink. We move fast, operate with a high degree of ownership, and hold ourselves to an exceptionally high standard of craft.</p> <p>RZR is scaling aggressively with an active M&A pipeline and a platform vision that puts us on a path to becoming an industry leader.

They source and negotiate partnerships; you own the technical execution behind every one of them, from integration and QA through to day-to-day performance monitoring. Along the way, you will help define how mobile performance advertising moves onto CTV, building process and frameworks rather than inheriting someone else's playbook.</p> <p>This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who knows programmatic supply operations, enjoys digging into data, and wants real ownership early in their career.</p> <h2>Key Responsibilities</h2> <h3>PMP & Deal Management</h3> <ul> <li>Own the end-to-end technical setup, configuration, and QA of PMP deals with CTV supply partners</li> <li>Monitor PMP deal health daily, including fill rate, underdelivery, and pricing discrepancies, and drive resolution with supply partners</li> </ul> <h3>Supply Path Optimization</h3> <ul> <li>Optimize CTV supply paths across exchanges and SSPs to reduce redundant hops and improve win rate and margin</li> <li>Evaluate the technical and operational fit of new CTV supply partners, and lead their onboarding and integration</li> </ul> <h3>BD Partnership & Reporting</h3> <ul> <li>Serve as the technical and operational partner to the CTV BD Lead, owning trafficking, integration, and monitoring for every deal they source and negotiate</li> <li>Track and analyze CTV spend trends across partners, and proactively surface actionable insights before they become client-facing problems</li> </ul> <h2>Required Skills and Experience</h2> <ul> <li>Around 2 years of experience in programmatic ad tech, with hands-on exposure to CTV/OTT supply-side operations</li> <li>Direct experience setting up, managing, and troubleshooting onboarding of Publishers on CTV Ad Servers</li> <li>Experience managing and optimizing an extensive deal library of PMPs </li> <li>Working knowledge of Springserve, Publica, FreeWheel, Index Exchange, PubMatic, and/or Magnite</li> <li>Strong technical understanding of programmatic deal flows, including auction mechanics, supply path optimization, and header bidding</li> <li>Working SQL proficiency to analyze spend and performance data</li> <li>Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate operational data into insights a business development partner can act on</li> </ul> <p><strong>Nice to have:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Experience with publisher-direct deals</li> <li>Experience in mobile advertising or working inside a DSP</li> <li>Familiarity with BI tools such as Looker or Tableau</li> </ul> <h2>The RZR Code</h2> <h3>Our Values</h3> <p>Our values define the company we want to be. They guide the decisions we make, the environment we create, and how we treat customers and each other.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Win with Customers:</strong> We don't call it a win unless our clients win too. We earn long-term trust by putting their success at the center.</li> <li><strong>One Team:</strong> No team wins when the company loses. We optimize for the company, not our function.</li> <li><strong>Challenge with Respect:</strong> We say what we think and challenge ideas regardless of title. We are direct without being disrespectful.</li> <li><strong>Learn Forward:</strong> Thoughtful experiments can fail; failing to learn from them cannot. Share what you learn.</li> </ul> <h3>Our Competencies</h3> <p>Our competencies define what we expect from each of us. They describe the behaviors and capabilities we demonstrate in our day-to-day work.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Extreme Ownership:</strong> Own the outcome end to end, including problems you didn't create.</li> <li><strong>Courage:</strong> Speak up, make hard calls, and take thoughtful risks.</li> <li><strong>Move Fast:</strong> Act with urgency and decide with the information available.</li> <li><strong>Curiosity:</strong> Ask why, look for better ways, and keep learning.</li>
