Innovation Engineer
We’re looking for an Innovation Engineer to join our tech team and help build the future of neuro-contextual advertising at global scale.
Who We Are
At Seedtag, our mission is to transform advertising by proving that effectiveness and user privacy can truly coexist.
As the leading Neuro-Contextual Advertising Company, we combine Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, and neuroscience to understand not only what content is about, but how it makes people feel and what they intend to do next.
Our proprietary AI, Liz, enables brands to connect with audiences across the open web and Connected TV without cookies or user tracking. Founded in 2014 by two ex-Googlers, Seedtag has grown to 700+ Seedtaggers in 17 countries, backed by €250M in funding, and operates today as a global ad-tech leader.
If you enjoy solving complex engineering challenges and building AI-driven systems at scale, you’ll feel right at home here.
The Role
We are looking for an Innovation Engineer to join our Connected TV (CTV) squad within Seedtag. In this role, you will help build the next generation of smart TV advertising by exploring new technologies, prototyping innovative solutions, and delivering production-ready features.
You will work in a fast-moving, startup-like environment within a global company, collaborating with developers and data scientists to improve audience understanding and ad targeting in a low-data CTV environment. This role combines technical expertise, creativity, and product thinking, giving you the opportunity to experiment with AI, large-scale data, and real-time systems while making a direct impact on the future of contextual advertising.
Your Challenge
Research, prototype, and deploy innovative solutions to improve targeting and contextual understanding in CTV environments
Experiment with AI, LLMs, and emerging technologies to accelerate product innovation
Design and optimize workflows and pipelines to efficiently process large-scale datasets
Collaborate with developers, senior engineers, and data scientists to define user stories and product direction
Own solutions end-to-end, from idea and experimentation to production deployment
Contribute to system architecture, performance optimization, and monitoring
Explore new approaches to audience understanding and ad optimization in low-signal environments
Our Core Values
Outcome over Output
