OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

We empower a diverse range of creators to imagine and develop culturally significant content, while building an organization that thrives on creative ideas, operational expertise and strategic thinking.

JOB DESCRIPTION
As a Director, Solutions Engineering at AdRise, a part of FOX, you will serve as a senior technical leader responsible for operationalizing platform capabilities delivered by Engineering, supporting stakeholders across FOX in the use of those capabilities, and translating real‑world usage and gaps back into actionable roadmap input.

This role sits at the intersection of Engineering, Product, and the business, ensuring that platform features are understood, adopted, supported, and evolved in a way that reflects how they are actually used.

You will lead a team of Solutions Engineers who act as technical stewards of the platform, balancing execution, enablement, and continuous improvement.

A SNAPSHOT OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
Platform Intake & Ownership

Serve as the primary owner for receiving new platform capabilities from Engineering into the Solutions Engineering organization.

Develop a deep understanding of intended functionality, known limitations, technical tradeoffs, edge cases and failure modes.

Ensure the team is prepared to support adoption, troubleshoot issues, and explain constraints clearly and accurately.

Stakeholder Enablement & Support

Act as a technical bridge between Engineering and Product teams and non‑technical stakeholders (Sales, Ad Ops, Programmatic, Yield, Partnerships).

Translate complex technical concepts into clear mental models, practical usage guidance, and business‑relevant explanations.

Partner with stakeholders to identify where workflows break down, find creative non‑code solutions when possible, and set realistic expectations where constraints exist.

Technical Advocacy & Roadmap Influence

Identify recurring gaps, limitations, or friction points surfaced through real usage.

Engage Product and Engineering in substantive technical discussions to explain why certain limitations matter, quantify impact, and propose viable solutions or alternatives.

Help shape roadmap prioritization by grounding requests in platform behavior, stakeholder pain, and business outcomes.

Ensure feedback loops are structured, credible, and actionable.

Execution & Architectural Leadership

Drive execution of complex ad‑tech initiatives across DAI / SSAI (Live and VOD), Free Wheel and FOX’s proprietary ad‑serving and decisioning platforms, and programmatic enablement and platform integrations.

Own ad flow design and validation, with strong emphasis on:

Ad Decision Logic (ADL)

Inventory ownership and entitlement

Break structure and capacity modeling

Ensure architectural decisions are consistent, scalable, and aligned with platform direction.

Team Growth & Capability Building

Build and lead a high‑performing Solutions Engineering team that understands publisher‑side ad tech deeply and is comfortable operating across technical and business contexts.

Develop team members to:

Speak credibly with engineers

Support non‑technical stakeholders

Recognize when workarounds are appropriate vs when platform changes are required

Establish standards for documentation, product handoff, support escalation, and technical reviews.

Cross‑Functional Partnership

Act as a trusted partner to Engineering, Product Management, Ad Ops, Programmatic, Sales and Partnerships.

Represent adRise in deep technical conversations with OEMs, MVPDs, Measurement and contextual vendors.

Ensure platform limitations and capabilities are communicated honestly and early.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

10+ years of experience in Ad tech, Publisher platforms, Streaming / CTV ecosystems.

Strong understanding of ad serving and SSAI/DAI architectures, Free Wheel, GAM, or equivalent systems, Ad Decision Logic (ADL), and ad flow construction.
