Head of Data Engineering

Are you ready to shape the future of digital advertising through data? A fast-growing, innovative ad tech company is looking for a Head of Data Engineering to lead the development of its audience intelligence and targeting infrastructure. This is a rare opportunity to build from the ground up and make a direct impact on campaign performance for some of the world's most recognisable brands.

What You'll Do

As Head of Data Engineering, you'll sit at the intersection of data, strategy, and technology. Your mission: to design and manage the systems that power audience targeting across a video advertising platform.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Audience Data Infrastructure: Build and evolve the architecture for ingesting, storing, and activating digital audiences across publisher and SSP networks.
  • Data Pipelines: Design robust pipelines to process real-time and historical data for audience segmentation.
  • Identity Resolution: Lead the integration of identity resolution solutions to unify first- and third-party data sources.
  • AI/ML Integration: Apply machine learning models to enhance audience classification and predictive targeting.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with AdOps, Sales, and Strategy teams to align data capabilities with campaign goals.
  • Innovation: Drive the shift from cookie-based targeting to contextual and outcome-driven models.

What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years in data engineering or programmatic media, ideally within ad tech, SSPs, or media agencies.
  • Proven experience with identity resolution and customer data integration (e.g., LiveRamp, Adobe, or custom solutions).
  • Strong programming skills in Python or similar languages.
  • Deep understanding of programmatic advertising ecosystems and privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR).
  • Experience applying ML/AI for segmentation or targeting.
  • Excellent communication skills
