What you'll do

  • Own the full user journey, from discovery and activation through onboarding, progression, and repeat reward engagement, by designing clear, motivating, product-native reward experiences and turning user behavior into measurable value for publishers and the platform.
  • Shape the Link SDK and its integration experience for mobile publishers, improving developer experience, implementation quality, configurability and observability, while working with engineering on identity, events, attribution, reward delivery and fraud prevention.
  • Develop new rewarded monetization products for publishers, defining how rewards, publisher value and Almedia's economics fit together, partnering with data science on pricing, segmentation, ranking and optimization.
  • Own a rigorous experimentation portfolio across consumer experiences, integrations and monetization, using holdouts and causal measurement, defining clear primary metrics, guardrails and maturity windows, and making explicit decisions to scale, change or stop each initiative.
  • Work directly with major mobile publishers, clearly explaining product capabilities, economics and measurement, leading lighthouse launches, turning publisher feedback into scalable product decisions, and building reporting that publishers can understand and trust.

What we're looking for

  • Senior product experience in mobile adtech, publisher monetization, rewarded advertising, mobile gaming monetization or a closely related marketplace.
  • Experience owning a consumer product involving rewards, onboarding, retention, progression or monetization.
  • Experience shipping an SDK, API, developer platform or technically complex partner integration.
  • Direct ownership of revenue, pricing, yield, gross margin, advertiser performance or another meaningful economic outcome.
  • Strong understanding of marketplace economics and how incentives affect users, publishers and advertisers.
  • Deep practical experience with experimentation, holdouts, selection bias and causal measurement.
  • Comfort working with data science on ranking, pricing or optimization systems.
  • Experience working directly with enterprise customers or publishers.

Nice to have

  • You've been a founder.
  • You know what it means to own an outcome with no one to hand it off to.
  • You've scaled through hyper-growth: 50 to 200+ people, building the plane mid-flight.
  • Mobile gaming or advertising background.

Benefits

Central Berlin Office: Work from a fully-stocked modern office built for collaboration, accessible from all around Berlin.

  • Grow alongside a startup that has been profitable from day one.
  • Transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more.
  • Clear path for growth.
