This isn’t your regular job. Almedia is a place where those who want to push harder can accelerate their careers faster than anywhere else. We’re aiming to become Germany’s second bootstrapped unicorn. Almedia is already Europe’s #3 fastest-growing company in 2025 (FT1000).

We are building the future of marketing by rewarding our community of over 60 million users for engaging with our advertisers’ products. We are offering a new way to acquire users for the biggest companies in the world.

At Almedia, you’ll:

• Own way more, way earlier — you’ll be trusted with responsibility fast.

• Push harder, get further — this isn’t a 9-5. We highly reward intensity.

• Join a rare environment — you will work with ambitious high-speed, high-ownership people.

• Fully present — we’re 5 days a week in the office to build the energising momentum we need.

Almedia rewards people for engaging with advertisers’ products. Ads are already live in the Freecash app via AppLovin MAX; now we want a hands-on lead to grow revenue from interstitial and rewarded ads without losing sight of the user experience. This is a senior individual-contributor role, not a team-management role.

What You’ll Own

• Improve ad placements, formats, and audience segmentation in the Freecash app.

• Run frequent tests and use the results to grow CPMs and total ad revenue.

• Optimize MAX mediation, bidders, and partner performance; pursue custom deals where they add value.

• Balance revenue gains against retention and user-experience trade-offs, working closely with product and Marco.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven ownership of in-app ad monetization , ideally in gaming or a high-volume consumer app.

• Hands-on experience with rewarded and interstitial ads, mediation, and bidding.

• Evidence of turning experiments and commercial opportunities into measurable revenue gains.

• Bonus: Experience shaping ad formats with product teams or applying monetization expertise to new products such as Link.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• Own Everything: You can set the plan and execute it without a team beneath you.

• Raise the Bar: You question the data and find opportunities others miss.

• Move Fast: You test, learn, and ship rather than waiting for a perfect playbook.

Why Almedia?

• Own Our Growth: We offer all Berlin-based employees equity in Almedia to truly be a part of our success.

• Scale With Almedia: Grow alongside a startup that has been profitable from day one.

• Central Berlin Office: Work from a fully-stocked modern office built for collaboration, accessible from all around Berlin.

• Other Benefits: Transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more.

We believe in fostering talent, evaluating all skill levels during the hiring process, and providing a clear path for growth. Almedia is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace and celebrate diversity, and encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
