Programmatic Media Manager

Tatari is on a mission to revolutionize TV advertising. Founded in 2016 to help transform the antiquated world of TV advertising through the intelligent application of AI and machine learning, Tatari helps some of the world’s fastest growing brands including Chime, Calm, Tecovas, Manscaped, Saatva, and Liquid I.V ., reach their customers using linear and streaming TV ads. Our platform combines sophisticated media buying with proprietary analytics to turn TV advertising into an automated, digital-like experience, enabling businesses of any size to advertise on TV.

That approach has earned Tatari broad industry recognition, including being named Best CTV AdTech Platform in the 8th annual MarTech Breakthrough Awards , as well as honors from Digiday ( Best Connected TV Platform) , AdExchanger ( Most Innovative TV Advertising Technology ), and Business Insider ( Hottest AdTech Companies) . Tatari has also been recognized as the Best Place to Work by Inc. Magazine . Backed by an executive team of former founders and senior leaders from companies including Shazam, TrueCar, AdapTV, LiveRail, Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Yahoo, Tatari continues to scale rapidly as TV advertising enters its next major era.

We’re hiring two Programmatic Media Managers: one focused on Direct Brands and one focused on Agency partners. As a Programmatic Media Manager, you will own performance outcomes for Streaming TV and OLV campaigns across your portfolio of clients/agencies. You’ll bring strong programmatic fundamentals and analytic thinking to help clients scale their campaigns.

Direct Brands: Manage a broader portfolio, with a heavier focus on hands-on trading, campaign activation, optimization, and performance analysis. You’ll work directly with clients alongside a dedicated Client Services owner, while spending the majority of your time driving campaign performance.

Agency : Manage a smaller portfolio of agency partners and serve as the sole day-to-day owner of those relationships - there is no separate Client Services owner. You’ll own both hands-on programmatic campaign management and the client relationship, including performance conversations, strategic recommendations, and identifying opportunities to grow the partnership.
