Headquartered in Zürich, Decentriq is trusted by renowned institutions in the DACH market and beyond, such as RTL Ad Alliance, Publicis Media, and UBS.
We're building a DMP and identity solution (OneID) that sits at the heart of our platform. We're looking for a Senior AdTech Engineer freelancer (≥ 80%, start as soon as possible) for 6 months (possible conversion into FTE) to own our adtech integrations end-to-end. The role can be fully remote (± 4h CET) or based in our Zürich/Berlin office.
Would you like to help us make the advertising industry ready for the 1st-party era? Then we'd love to hear from you!
Tasks
* Own Our JavaScript Tags – Develop and maintain Decentriq's client-side tags for our OneID identity system and DMP event capture.
* Support Publisher Integrations – Work directly with publisher technical teams to integrate our tags and troubleshoot implementation issues.
* Build Adserver Integrations – Develop key-value lookups and integrations with adservers (GAM, Xandr).
* Own Server-to-Server Integrations – Design and build low-latency S2S integrations with the adtech ecosystem: adservers, DSPs, and identity providers.
* Creative Pixel Integrations – Build and maintain pixel integrations for campaign measurement and attribution.
Requirements
* (Must have) Bachelor/Master/PhD in Computer Science or a related field and 5+ years of professional experience.
* (Must have) Expert-level JavaScript and Python; experience building low-latency, production-grade adtech systems.
* (Must have) Have worked at a publisher, DMP, or SSP—you understand the adtech ecosystem from the inside.
* (Must have) Hands-on experience with adserver integrations (Google Ad Manager, Xandr).
* (Plus) Experience with identity graphs, ID resolution, or cookieless identity solutions.
* (Plus) Familiarity with privacy frameworks (TCF, consent management).
* (Plus) Rust proficiency (we use it for backend services and compute-heavy client-side modules).
Benefits
* Competitive rates
* Ownership instead of simply an executor
* An amazing and fun team that is distributed all over Europe.
No need for a formal motivational letter. Just send your CV along with a few bullet points about why you're excited to work with us. We look forward to your application!
