Mediavine is a fast-growing advertising management company that represents over 10,000 websites. They are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead projects across their AdTech stack, contribute high-quality code, and mentor peers while collaborating with cross-functional teams.
Responsibilities:
- 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
