Team

Voodoo Ad-Network is an autonomous product of around 30 people that carries the ambitious mission of providing ad network services. One goal is to leverage Voodoo’s first-party data to improve Voodoo’s monetisation. Moreover, the product is growing through new ventures like opening up to external inventory, reaching the external-advertisers market and social-network monetisation through BeReal’s recent acquisition. Thanks to promising results, our ambition is now to scale up the team to support growth.

The product is composed of top-tier software engineers, infrastructure engineers, data engineers, mobile engineers, and data scientists.

The Models team is a core element of the targeting performance. It leverages machine learning and a strong business understanding to directly impact the product’s financial performance. It’s composed of mostly senior Data Analysts, Analytics Engineers, Data Engineers and Data Scientists/ML Engineers who iterate together on finding and building the next performing iteration.

This position is hybrid and requires 2-3 days per week in the office based in Paris.
