Role Overview:

As a Senior Manager, Ad Operations for the ADS PLUS team, based in our Bangalore office, you will lead the regional execution of our monetization workflow, overseeing the end-to-end lifecycle of ad delivery across our FAST channel ecosystem for your team's book of business. This is a high-impact leadership role managing the Bangalore Ad Ops team and bridging the gap between supply partners and demand sources, in close coordination with global stakeholders. You will drive onboarding/integration execution, inventory management, media planning, campaign management, and technical troubleshooting for the region, ensuring revshare and inventory-share models are executed with precision and maximum yield.

What will you own?

• Team Leadership (Bangalore): Lead, scale, and mentor the Bangalore Ad Ops team. Execute SOPs (defined at the global level) for onboarding new FAST channels and platform partners (OEMs/MVPDs), adapting for regional partner needs.
• Team Development & Mentorship: Own career development paths, performance reviews, and a culture of technical excellence for the Bangalore team, in alignment with global people practices.
• Technical Operations & Account Management Collaboration: Own the technical relationship between Supply (Content/Platforms) and Demand (SSPs/DSPs) for the regional book of business, partnering closely with Account Management to align on partner priorities, escalations, and commercial context that inform technical execution.
• Media Planning: Own media planning for regional demand partners and direct/programmatic guaranteed deals — translating advertiser/agency briefs into flight plans, inventory allocation, and pacing strategy that hit delivery and revenue goals.
• Process Automation: Identify bottlenecks specific to the Bangalore team's workflows and drive automation initiatives to free up bandwidth, partnering with global Ops/Eng as needed.
• Campaign Management Oversight: Provide direct oversight of campaign setup, trafficking, pacing, and optimization across ad server and SSP platforms. Ensure campaigns are launched accurately, monitored against KPIs, and course-corrected in-flight to avoid under-delivery, overdelivery, or missed guarantees.
• Inventory & Yield Execution: Oversee Supply Ops inventory share and revshare configurations to meet margin targets set by global leadership. Execute floor price strategies and auction mechanics for regional partners.
• Product Collaboration: Serve as the Bangalore-based liaison to the SaaS Product and Engineering teams, surfacing regional pain points and feature needs into the global roadmap.
• Partner Management: Oversee Demand Ops and collaborate with Demand AMs to optimize key SSP and tech vendor relationships for the region, ensuring ADS PLUS Bangalore is leveraging the latest programmatic protocols.

What are we looking for?

• 10 - 14 years in Ad Operations with experience in CTV/FAST/OTT.
• Deep expertise in video ad servers, preferably SpringServe.
• Proven people-management track record leading a team in Bangalore/India, ideally with experience managing managers.
• Proven experience working both Supply-side and Demand-side in the programmatic ecosystem.
• Familiarity with JIRA, APIs, and scripting
• Experience using AI/agentic tools to execute tasks more quickly while ensuring high levels of accuracy.
• Strong understanding of SSAI workflow and business logic behind revshare and inventory-split models.
• Hands-on experience with media planning- flight scheduling, inventory forecasting/allocation, and pacing across direct and programmatic deals.
• Direct campaign management experience: trafficking, QA, in-flight optimization, and delivery reporting, with ownership of outcomes against advertiser/partner KPIs.
• Comfort operating in close coordination with a global/US-based leadership team and stakeholders across time zones.
