About this Senior Trading Specialist role at The Trade Desk

The Trade Desk · Onsite · Seoul

The Trade Desk is a global technology company and the world’s leading independent platform for digital advertising, with over 3,000 employees across more than 30 offices. Our technology helps advertisers reach the right audiences across the open internet — from streaming TV and podcasts to mobile apps, news, and more. 

Advertising powers the content people love. By making it more transparent, effective, and responsible, we help support trusted journalism, quality entertainment, and creators worldwide. The world’s brands and agencies rely on us to reach their customers and grow their businesses responsibly.

The scale of our platform brings unique technical challenges — from processing massive datasets in real time to building systems that operate reliably on a global scale. When you work here, your impact is worldwide. We welcome diverse perspectives, encourage curiosity, and build teams that learn from one another. If you’re driven to solve meaningful challenges, we’d love to meet you.

What you'll do 

  • Own end-to-end campaign strategy, setup, optimization and reporting for a portfolio of key advertisers and agencies
  • Collaborate with Account Management, Business Development and Technical Account Management colleagues to drive portfolio performance and growth
  • Translate client KPIs (CPA, ROAS, reach, viewability, brand lift) into bidding, audience, inventory and creative strategies
  • Troubleshoot advanced platform and performance issues across channels including Display, Online Video, Connected TV, Audio and DOOH
  • Analyze performance data to find insights, and recommend and run tests that improve client outcomes and spend growth
  • Act as the trusted platform expert in client and agency meetings, including QBRs, pitches and onboarding sessions
  • Mentor junior and mid-level specialists, share best practices and help build team playbooks and training
  • Surface customer feedback to Product and Engineering, and champion adoption of new features
  • Work with APAC regional teams on cross-market campaigns and consistent operational standards 

What you'll bring 

  • 5+ years in digital advertising, programmatic trading, ad operations or a similar role, ideally on the agency, platform or advertiser side
  • Hands-on experience with a DSP (for example The Trade Desk, DV360 or Amazon DSP) and a solid grasp of RTB, PMPs, deal ID and supply path optimization
  • Strong analytical skills: you are comfortable with large datasets, Excel/Google Sheets and ideally SQL or BI tools
  • Working knowledge of ad measurement, attribution, verification and identity solutions in a privacy-first environment
  • Proven record of managing relationships with senior client and agency stakeholders
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain campaign optimization actions, technical troubleshooting findings and data-driven insights to clients
  • A proactive, structured approach to problem-solving, and the ability to manage several priorities in a fast-moving environment
  • Genuine curiosity for new topics and technical concepts, with the ability to learn quickly and apply new knowledge in a fast-evolving ad tech environment
  • Business-level fluency in Korean and English, spoken and written
