Here’s what you’ll be responsible for:

  • Ad Monetization Strategy: Take full ownership of defining and implementing a robust ad monetization strategy that maximizes revenue without compromising the player experience. Your goal will be to seamlessly integrate ads into gameplay, maintaining engagement and satisfaction.
  • Ad Inventory Optimization: Oversee the placement, frequency, and types of ads (rewarded, interstitial, banners, etc.) within our games. Your ability to optimize ad inventory will be crucial to driving revenue while ensuring the ads complement the gameplay.
  • Partnership and Vendor Management: Build and maintain strong relationships with ad networks, mediation platforms, and other third-party partners. You'll lead negotiations, test new ad formats, and troubleshoot any issues to continually enhance our ad strategy.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Leverage data and analytics to track performance metrics such as eCPM, fill rate, and ARPDAU. Use these insights to drive constant optimization and ensure our ad monetization efforts are aligned with business goals.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with data, user acquisition and product teams to integrate ad placements seamlessly into gameplay. Your collaborative approach will ensure ad strategies align with our overall product vision and player experience goals.
  • Experimentation and Innovation: Run A/B tests and other experiments to refine ad placement strategies, formats, and creatives. Your willingness to innovate will be key to finding the most effective ad configurations for each of our games.

Requirements

If you’re creative, ambitious, and up for taking over the industry, we want you on our team! We are also looking for:

  • Ad Monetization Expertise: At least 4 years of hands-on experience with mobile ad models (rewarded, interstitials, banners) and mediation platforms like AdMob or IronSource. You know the intricacies of monetizing mobile games.
  • Leadership & Collaboration Skills: You’ve managed ad monetization teams, led ad strategies, and worked cross-functionally with product, design, and user acquisition teams to align monetization efforts with overall business goals.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Proven ability to analyze key monetization metrics such as eCPM, fill rate, and ARPDAU, and optimize performance to drive revenue growth.
  • Ad Networks & Programmatic Savvy: Strong familiarity with ad networks, real-time bidding, waterfall management, and programmatic strategies to enhance ad performance.
  • A/B Testing & Optimization Expertise: Extensive experience running A/B tests to determine optimal ad configurations, placements, and creatives, ensuring continuous improvement in monetization performance
  • Game Design Awareness: You understand how to seamlessly integrate ads into gameplay without disrupting the player experience and can collaborate with game design teams to do so.

Our Culture—Who we are🪐

At Homa, we are building a community of brilliant talents. We believe that true innovation comes from diversity and collaboration, and that's why we prioritize brainpower and determination over formal education. So if you have the talent, energy and motivation, there is no obstacle to your success here.

As the creative experts behind the platform, we provide developers with the data they need to bring their ideas to life. Our team lives by three central values that guide everything we do:

Ambition: we're not afraid to tackle difficult challenges and set our goals extremely high. We're on a mission to revolutionize an industry dominated by well-established companies, and we won't stop until we succeed.

Humility: we leave our pride & ego aside. We are always ready to lend a helping hand, celebrate each other's successes, and learn from our failures. As Mr. Lamar said, "Sit down. Be humble."

Curiosity: we keep our minds open and never stop learning. We believe that questioning everything is the best way to stay ahead of the curve, and we encourage all our team members to stay curious and never stop exploring new ideas.

At Homa, you'll be challenged, supported, and inspired every day, and we can't wait to see what you bring to the table.

Benefits

While success is its own reward, here are some of the benefits that come with working at Homa:

  • We offer essential benefits in France and specific locations, including health insurance, meal vouchers, public transport subsidies, childcare benefits, and life insurance
  • If you're interested in working from our newly renovated Paris HQ with a rooftop garden and WeWork amenities, we have a desk waiting for you
