In the Technical Ad Solutions team, we busy ourselves primarily with making sure our ads run smoothly and identifying and solving problems of all sorts and shapes. This can vary, for example, from doing tech QA on our bespoke creative builds, to writing code snippets that ensure our ads look good and work well on all websites in our marketplace, and to coding custom solutions to fix rendering and performance issues.

As an Ad Solutions Developer, you will have the opportunity to learn and develop your skills, not only in pure web development but also in digital advertising. You will be part of a motivated and helpful team and serve as one of the go-to ad tech experts for our colleagues in the EMEA and other regions as necessary.

Note: GumGum currently operates in a ‘work from home’ virtual environment with sporadic opportunities for in-person business and morale events (health guidelines permitting). There will not be any requirement to go into the office on a daily basis moving forward.
