Our titles, including Sherlock, Hidden City®, Mahjong Journey®, The Secret Society®, and the Jewels series, are enjoyed by 250 million people worldwide.

Responsibilities

Own ad revenue performance across assigned titles: ad ARPDAU, eCPM by geo and format, impressions/DAU, fill rate
Run mediation end to end: bidding and waterfall setup and optimization, network onboarding and rotation, diagnosing drops
Design the ad experience together with product teams: placements, frequency, formats, integrating rewarded video into core game loops
Build and defend A/B tests, evaluating impact on retention and IAP - not ad ARPDAU in isolation
On hybridcasual projects: connect ad LTV to user acquisition - payback modelling, signals passed back to networks, segmentation by predicted value
Manage relationships with ad network partners: terms, priority access to betas and new formats
Report clearly and regularly, translating numbers into decisions for product teams, UA and management

Requirements

3+ years in ad monetization for mobile games or apps, with genuine hands-on access to mediation
Experience working inside a game product team (embedded with product, analytics and engineering on a live title)
Hands-on with at least one major mediation platform: AppLovin MAX, LevelPlay/ironSource, Google AdMob / Ad Manager
Experience with hybrid monetization and a clear view of where ads compete with IAP
Ability to read data independently: BI and analytical dashboards
Comfortable reading ad network technical documentation (SDK and API) and writing clear requirements for engineers
Upper-Intermediate English or above
Structured, self-directed, and willing to defend decisions with numbers

Nice to Have

Experience on the ad network or mediation platform side (Unity Ads, AppLovin, ironSource, Google or similar)
Background in hybridcasual or hypercasual titles
Understanding of how ad revenue feeds into UA payback models (ROAS, SKAN, AEM)
Experience in casual IAP-driven games - ideally alongside hybridcasual exposure
