About Advertima Vision

Advertima is building the missing infrastructure that brings the power of digital advertising to the physical world.

Today, most advertising inside physical retail stores still operates like the internet did twenty years ago: static screens, no audience intelligence, and almost no measurable performance. Meanwhile, online advertising evolved into a trillion-dollar ecosystem powered by real-time data, automation, and programmatic infrastructure.

We are changing that.

Advertima has built the technology that transforms physical retail environments into real-time, data-driven media channels. Using computer vision, edge computing, and distributed AI systems, we translate physical shoppers into anonymized digital audiences that can be measured, targeted, and activated in real time.

This is not a theoretical vision or an incremental improvement. It is the creation of a completely new global technology standard.

Global retail leaders such as Walmart, Carrefour, FairPrice, SPAR, and EDEKA are deploying our technology across thousands of stores. Together, we are defining the global standard for In-store Retail Media.

But defining the technology is only the first step.

The real challenge is making this new standard work across a fragmented global ecosystem of SSPs, DSPs, CMS platforms, and retailers — each with their own constraints, incentives, and legacy systems.

This is where product comes in.

At Advertima, product is not about writing specs. It is about making a new category actually work in the real world. You will work directly with partners, configure systems yourself, unblock integrations, and turn ambiguity into working solutions that scale.

At the same time, everything we build follows a strict privacy-by-design philosophy. Our systems operate without storing personal data or images, while still enabling the audience intelligence required for real-time performance media. This approach, rooted in Switzerland’s strong privacy culture, is one of the key reasons global retailers trust Advertima.

You will operate at the intersection of product, engineering, and the global adtech ecosystem shaping how in-store Retail Media is activated, bought, and measured.

If you enjoy building in ambiguity, working hands-on with real systems and partners, and defining how a new global standard is implemented across the market, Advertima offers a rare opportunity.

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly entrepreneurial Senior Product Manager, AdTech to take a key ownership role on our AI platform. You will own the vision, strategy, and execution for critical product areas required to find product-market fit in a high-uncertainty, high-impact environment. Your mission: bridge the gap between online and offline advertising by building a product that delivers measurable outcomes for the world's top retailers.


Your role…

• Partner Integrations & Hands-on Execution: Serve as the primary driver for integrating our AI platform with external AdTech partners. You are deeply technical and hands-on—you will not be blocked by technical hurdles and are comfortable adjusting CMS configurations yourself to keep projects moving forward.
• Product Ownership & Vision: Define and own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for your product area, navigating the path to product-market fit.
• Market & Customer Discovery: Relentlessly seek customer and market insights through continuous discovery and competitive analysis to identify and validate high-value opportunities in the retail AdTech space.
• Lean Execution: Drive rapid, lean experimentation. Prioritize ruthlessly to define and build the most effective product with the least effort, iterating quickly based on validated learning.
• Technical & Architectural Guidance: Partner with engineering to make key architectural decisions, ensuring the platform is scalable and performant. Translate complex technical concepts for all stakeholders.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Serve as the central communication hub, aligning engineering, sales, marketing, and operations around the product vision and roadmap.
• Product Evangelism: Act as a key evangelist for the product. Clearly articulate the value proposition, vision, and technical capabilities to customers, partners, and internal stakeholders to drive adoption and excitement.
• Data & Intuition-Driven Decisions: Blend quantitative data with strong product intuition to make informed decisions when data is scarce. Define, track, and report on key metrics for success.

• 5+ years of product management experience, with a significant focus on the AdTech ecosystem (e.g., programmatic advertising, SSPs, DSPs, DMPs).
• Familiarity with the technical nuances of integrating DOOH (Digital Out-of-Home) networks with programmatic AdTech stacks. Hands-on knowledge of VAST and OpenRTB protocols.
• Direct, hands-on experience configuring and managing specific, industry-leading SSPs and retail-focused CMS platforms.
• Strong technical background, either through a Computer Science/Engineering degree or equivalent professional experience leading technical products. You are fully capable of handling technical tasks independently without being blocked.
• Proven experience launching and iterating on products in a startup, pre-market-fit, or similarly ambiguous, fast-paced environment.
• Demonstrable entrepreneurial mindset: resourceful, results-oriented, and comfortable making decisions with incomplete data.
• Exceptional communication and leadership skills, with a proven ability to influence and align cross-functional teams and mentor other product managers.

Ideally, you also have…

• Master's degree in a related field.
• Direct experience with data analysis and query languages (e.g., SQL).
• Familiarity with computer vision concepts or other AI/ML technologies.
• Deep understanding of digital privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, etc.).
