The ideal candidate will have expertise in managing and maximizing revenue from programmatic ad inventory, with a focus on supply-side platforms (SSPs), private marketplaces (PMPs), and direct publisher partnerships. As a Yield Analyst, you will be responsible for analyzing inventory performance, optimizing yield strategies, and ensuring our publisher partners achieve their revenue goals.

- Bidstream & Auction Analysis: Analyze bidstream data to identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities to enhance bidding performance, increase competition, and maximize publisher revenue.
- Ad Quality & Placement Optimization: Ensure high-quality ad placements that maximize revenue without compromising user experience, brand safety, or ad relevance.
- Partnership Collaboration: Collaborate with internal teams and external partners (Publisher Client Services, Publishers, Product) to ensure that demand sources are fully leveraged, inventory is being fully monetized, and revenue goals are met.
- Troubleshooting & Issue Resolution: Identify and address issues related to ad delivery, revenue leakage, or technical problems that may impact yield optimization, collaborating with internal technical teams to resolve them.
- Market Intelligence & Trend Analysis: Stay up-to-date on the latest trends in programmatic advertising, particularly from a publisher perspective. Benchmark yield performance against industry standards and competitors to suggest new strategies.
- Continuous Improvement: Continuously improve and refine yield management practices, leveraging data, new technologies, and best practices to optimize monetization efforts.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Data Science, Economics, or a related field.
- Experience: 2-4 years of experience in publisher-focused programmatic advertising, yield optimization, or related data analytics roles. Familiarity with SSPs, RTB, and header bidding is a must.
- Skills:
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to assess and interpret large datasets to inform decision-making.
- Proficiency with data analysis and reporting tools (Excel, SQL, Tableau, Looker, PowerBI, etc.).
- Deep understanding of the programmatic ad tech ecosystem, including SSPs, RTB, PMP, header bidding, and auction mechanics.
- Knowledge of key programmatic metrics, such as eCPM, fill rate, ad latency, and inventory yield.
