Overview
Ad Tech Developer – Header Bidding (Remote)
MonetizeMore is seeking an Ad Tech Developer with in-depth expertise in header bidding to build, optimize, and scale programmatic monetization for premium publishers. You’ll own end-to-end header bidding implementations (with a heavy focus on Prebid.js), improve auction performance, and partner with product, yield, and publisher success teams to deliver revenue-lifting results with excellent user experience.
What You’ll Do
- Design & implement header bidding stacks using Prebid.js (web) and related wrappers; configure bidders, floors, price granularity, userId modules, and analytics
- Customize & extend adapters / modules (e.g., userId, analytics, consent) and contribute clean, documented JavaScript / TypeScript code
- Integrate with GAM / Ad Manager (GPT) : line item strategy, key-values, creative templates, and troubleshooting of delivery and competition
- Optimize auctions & latency : tune timeouts, s2s vs. client, floors, ad refresh logic, and page performance (CLS / LCP / INP / Core Web Vitals)
- Run experiments : A / B test bidders, formats, and page placements; build dashboards to track impact (e.g., eCPM, viewability, fill, latency)
- Debug complex issues across browser, network, and auction layers (DevTools, HAR / Waterfall, Charles / Proxyman); resolve revenue dips & bidder errors
- Implement privacy & compliance : IAB TCF, GDPR / CCPA / CPRA, CMP integration, consent storage, and geo-specific behaviors
- Work with partners : SSPs, exchanges, ID providers, and analytics vendors to launch new demand and troubleshoot
- Ship quality safely : use Git, CI / CD, code review, and observability to keep releases fast and reliable
- Document & mentor : write clear runbooks and help level up teammates
