Middle Project Manager (DanAds-AdTech) (offline)

Project

We work on the DanAds platform, an Ad-desk which is integrated with the publishers own ad servers (e.g. Google Ad Manager — GAM), CRM and payment systems (Adyen, Stripe). The main customers/users of the system are Publishers as well as small and medium advertisers who want to market its business among web, mobile, and print units. Publishers are Media owners; small and medium advertisers are direct advertisers, various digital agencies, and sales companies.

Sigma Software developed the system from scratch. It consists of back-end build with Laravel PHP framework, front-end build with Vue.js and HTML/CSS/JS and a special SDK for integration with AdServers (GAM, Beeswax, Matchcraft, etc.).

In this role, the Project Manager will work together with the team of real professionals to deliver outstanding quality to clients throughout the full software project lifecycle. Close collaboration with various stakeholders on a client side opens a gateway for gaining vast experience in the AdTech domain and an opportunity to play a key role in a project course.
