Job details:
📍 South Delhi
We're hiring someone who can hold two things in their head at once: what the experience should feel like, and what the system underneath has to do to make that feel effortless at scale. This role fuses UX, DX, UI, and software architecture into one seat — because in AI-native programmatic ad-tech, design decisions and architecture decisions are the same decision made twice, and we'd rather make it once, correctly.
The mandate
Build a programmatic ad-tech platform that is faster, smarter, and more AI-native than the incumbents — and prove it in the number that matters: RoAS above 3x for the advertisers running on our stack. Not a design goal. Not an engineering goal. A business outcome that experience strategy and system architecture both have to serve.
What you'll own
Architecture for scale
- Design the technical architecture behind a DSP, SSP, and Ad Exchange capable of real-time bidding at volume — low latency, high throughput, no compromises on either
- Make the hard calls on system design trade-offs as we scale: what to build, what to buy, what to defer
- Architect for a bootstrapped growth path — infrastructure decisions that scale with revenue, not against it, since we're not burning venture capital to buy our way out of bad architecture
AI-native performance
- Own the path to greater than 3x RoAS as an architectural and experience outcome, not just a media-buying one — this means bidding logic, targeting precision, and interface decisions all pulling in the same direction
- Understand the programmatic advertising business deeply enough to know where AI-native execution actually creates an edge versus where it's noise
Experience strategy
- Define how it feels to operate our DSP, SSP, and Ad Exchange under real-time pressure: dense data made legible, trust built through transparency, speed that feels earned
- Set a consistent experience precedent across our product ecosystem (Ravaki, Tejaki, Cogito, State of Ads)
Developer experience
- Own the SDK/API experience end to end: time-to-first-integration, sandbox-to-production friction, key management, error messaging
- Set the bar for documentation as a designed product, and define how we communicate versioning and breaking changes without breaking trust
AI-native experience thinking
- Genuinely enjoy working with AI, not just tolerate it — understand use cases across developers, the developer community, gamers, podcasters, content creators, and the advertising community
- Design with Gen Z attention patterns in mind, and read attention metrics rather than guess at them
- Understand how experience decisions translate into retainable, sustainable business — particularly as the platform evolves from PaaS toward IaaS, in a world where entire SaaS products can be spun up from a single prompt
Business and product expansion
- Come with a well-articulated point of view on how this platform scales systematically — sequencing, prioritization, and the path from bootstrapped to profitable
- Think like an owner about product expansion: what we build next, and why that order matters
Who we're looking for
- Demonstrated experience architecting scalable systems, ideally in ad-tech, real-time bidding, or comparably latency-sensitive domains
- A portfolio or body of work showing strategic ownership of experience — UX, DX, and UI — not just polished screens or clever infrastructure in isolation
- Strong understanding of the programmatic digital advertising business: how DSPs, SSPs, and exchanges create and capture value
- A clearly articulated success plan — how you'd approach scale, profitability, and expansion with clarity of thought, not just enthusiasm
- Fluency with AI tools and genuine interest in AI-native product and system thinking
- Demonstrated ability to learn, adapt, and move fast as the AI landscape shifts underneath the role
- Based in or near South Delhi
Before you apply
Come prepared to talk specifics: real architectural decisions you've made under real constraints, trade-offs you'd defend, and the actual journey behind your career so far. We expect a working understanding of the ad-tech industry and where it's headed with AI-native infrastructure before you apply. Visit our website.
