Senior Monetization Manager

The opportunity
At Aura by Unity, we partner with leading OEMs and mobile carriers to elevate users' device experiences through a rich content ecosystem — while driving meaningful engagement and revenue.

As part of the Aura News team, you'll be the strategic owner of our monetization roadmap, leading how we generate and grow revenue across both existing products and new offerings. This is a senior, high-impact role where your deep ad tech expertise, product thinking, and execution skills will directly shape our monetization success.

We're looking for someone with a visionary mindset and hands-on experience — someone who can both define strategy and roll up their sleeves to implement, test, and optimize it in close collaboration with product, engineering, operations, and external demand partners.

What You'll Be Doing

• Own and lead Aura News's monetization strategy, including roadmap planning and day-to-day optimization
• Drive revenue growth by testing and integrating new monetization technologies, formats, and demand partners
• Collaborate cross-functionally with PMs, engineers, ops, BI, and business teams to ensure monetization is embedded across the product lifecycle
• Define and execute high-impact projects — from ad refresh strategies and ad unit formats, price floor testing and more.
• Oversee and optimize all Google Ad Manager configurations, including new account setups, ad unit structures, line item management, and SSP integrations
• Monitor performance metrics and market trends to identify growth opportunities and ensure we stay ahead of industry shifts

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in ad monetization or ad tech, ideally with mobile publishers or platforms
• Strong hands-on experience with Google Ad Manager
• Deep understanding of the mobile advertising ecosystem — including SSPs, SDK integrations, header bidding, Open Bidding and direct deals.
• Analytical mindset with the ability to turn data into insights and insights into action
• Proven ability to initiate, lead, and execute strategic monetization projects from start to finish
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience working across technical and business teams
• Fluent English (written and verbal)

You might also have

• Experience with demand-side integrations like Amazon TAM, SDK bidding or Native Ads.
• Familiarity with ad quality tools and managing direct-deals or campaigns
• Industry connections and a strong pulse on monetization trends and best practices

Additional Information

• Relocation support is not available for this position.
• Work visa/immigration sponsorship is not available for this position
