Job Description

Please note that this role is offered on a fixed-term basis until the end of 2026.

For this role we offer the hybrid working approach with 2 days a week onsite in Osterley campus.

We believe in better. And we make it happen.

Better content. Better products. And better careers.

Working in Tech, Product or Data at Sky is about building the next and the new. From broadband to broadcast, streaming to mobile, SkyQ to Sky Glass, we never stand still. We optimise and innovate.

We turn big ideas into the products, content and services millions of people love.

And we do it all right here at Sky.

This is a senior AdTech integration role for someone who can analyse complex integration challenges, shape solution options, assess trade-offs, and guide technical decisions across programmatic and platform integrations. It is best suited to someone with strong AdTech integration knowledge who has moved beyond pure delivery into solution analysis and technical design.

What you'll do:
  • Lead end-to-end technical analysis and design of integrations across programmatic advertising and wider platform environments.
  • Analyse complex integration scenarios (client-side, server-side, APIs, data flows, third-party platforms) and shape clear solution options.
  • Evaluate trade-offs, risks, dependencies and impacts across architecture, operations and compliance.
  • Conduct technical investigations, feasibility assessments and proofs-of-concept to validate integration approaches.
  • Produce clear, structured technical documentation, including requirements, diagrams and integration specifications.
  • Translate complex technical findings into actionable recommendations for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Work closely with Architecture, Engineering and Operations teams to ensure solutions align with enterprise standards, scalability and operational needs.
  • Support ongoing improvement of existing integrations and onboarding of new DSPs and partners as demand grows.
What you'll bring:
  • Strong hands-on experience with technical integrations, APIs and modern integration patterns.
  • Solid understanding of the programmatic advertising ecosystem (DSPs, SSPs, ad servers, video ad delivery).
  • Proven ability to analyse complex technical problems, design solutions and explain why a chosen approach is appropriate.
  • Experience thinking beyond how to implement - including alternatives, trade-offs, risks and dependencies.
  • Ability to produce clear technical documentation and diagrams to support design and delivery.
  • Confidence working independently while collaborating effectively across multiple teams and stakeholders.
