About the role We're looking for the person who owns Arpeely's relationship with the programmatic ecosystem. You'll open new supply, negotiate the terms we trade under, run strategic technical partnerships with the biggest exchanges, decide which vendors are worth integrating with, and set the risk and compliance posture that lets our growth teams move fast without blowing up. This is a hybrid seat: half commercial (deals, partnerships, vendor strategy), half technical leadership (integrations, compliance systems, ad quality, supply quality). You'll report to the CTO and you'll build out the programmatic team. If you've spent years as a senior programmatic operator at a DSP, exchange, or large advertiser, and you want a seat where the levers are real and the decisions stick, this is it. What You’ll Do Your main KPI is to grow Arpeely's programmatic annual spend by hundreds of millions. Concretely, that means: Scale Arpeely's foothold in the ecosystem. Open new exchanges and SSPs, negotiate commercial terms and rebates with supply partners. Work with existing exchanges like Google and AppLovin on strategic technical joint ventures that go beyond "we're a buyer on your platform." Find opportunities in our bidding. Work with Engineering and Data Science to leverage signals in the RTB stream. Turn auction-level observations into action: supply paths worth consolidating, deal opportunities that only the bid data surfaces, margin and fee dynamics worth pushing on, and inventory pockets where we should bid more or less aggressively.
