Today we are 1,000 people, generating $1b+ in annual revenue, profitably. Our games and apps have passed 7 billion downloads and reach 200 million+ active users every month, making Voodoo the #3 mobile publisher worldwide in downloads, after Google and Meta. We were backed by Goldman Sachs, Tencent and GBL along the way. ## Team The Engineering & Data team builds innovative tech products and platforms to support the impressive growth of their gaming and consumer apps which allow Voodoo to stay at the forefront of the mobile gaming industry. Helix is our flagship Ad-Network team of around 60 top-tier engineers and data scientists spanning backend, mobile SDKs, data engineering, infrastructure, and AI. Helix has evolved beyond powering Voodoo's own gaming portfolio—our technology is now directly integrated into games from external, third-party publishers worldwide. Operating across millions of third-party devices in real-time bidding environments creates unique technical challenges around SDK performance, ultra-low latency, and intelligent automation. Within Helix, you'll join the RTB team, the group that owns the bidder and the services behind it that help it take the optimal bidding decision. Bidder, pricing, models and data are all built in-house, so nothing is out of reach when you want to change how a bid gets made. You will work with expert backend and machine-learning engineers in real-time bidding, on a system that prices ad requests across mobile gaming in real time, at a scale few teams get to work at. ## Role We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager - Real Time Bidding to join our Engineering & Data team. In this role, you’ll drive product decisions across the full bidding pipeline. You'll own projects end-to-end: roadmap, trade-offs, shipping, and cross-team contract. You will also: - Own the roadmap of the bidding pipeline. How we target, price, pace and cap, and what goes live in the bid path and when. - Own the delivery. Adapt to changes, set clear priorities, communicate effectively - Own experimentation as a product. Other teams test ideas on the bidder through the framework we build. You make sure they can run the experiments they need, trust the results, and get an answer fast. - Keep the pieces fitting together. You spot a change in one team that will break another before it reaches production. - Contribute to the product strategy beyond your scope. Profile (Must have) - Experience in programmatic advertising. You have worked on pricing, bidding or auction logic on a DSP, bidder or exchange, you know the pipeline from bid request to win, and you can explain the business impact of your work. - Analytical mindset. You back decisions with data and understand the statistical basis of pricing and experimentation. - You own outcomes across teams. When a change in one team is about to break another, you catch it and drive the fix before it ships. - You use AI tooling daily to write specs, analyse data and prototype, and you move faster because of it. Profile (Nice to have) - Mobile user acquisition: app install campaigns, attribution or mediation. - Experience working with ML or data science teams. - Supply-side experience: ad exchange or SSP. - Background in statistics, operations research or economics. ## Benefits - Competitive salary based on experience - Swile Lunch voucher - Gymlib (100% covered by Voodoo) - Premium healthcare coverage with SideCare, 100% covered for you and your family - Wellness activities in our Paris office - Remote Fridays ## About Voodoo ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Voodoo is a global tech company that entertains the world through iconic mobile apps and games, empowering bold creators to turn their ideas into hits. - **Entity Type**: Private (minority stakes from Tencent, Goldman Sachs, and Groupe Bruxelles Lambert) - **Headquarters**: Paris, France - **Founded**: 2013 - **Founders**: Alexandre Yazdi, Laurent Ritter ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: Mobile gaming, mobile apps, social platforms - **Target customers**: B2C (mobile consumers worldwide) - **Mission or purpose statement**: "Entertain the world through iconic apps and games" – Voodoo aims to empower bold creators and deliver engaging mobile experiences. ## Products & Services - **Mob Control**: Hybrid-casual game that grossed nearly $100 million; started as hyper-casual and evolved post-launch. - **Block Jam 3D**: Block-matching puzzle game; also crossed $100 million in revenue. - **BeReal**: Photo-sharing social app acquired for €500 million in June 2024; 50 million users globally. - **Wizz**: Social media platform launched in 2020; 1 million MAU in the US. - **Publishing Platform**: Voodoo evaluates and publishes games from over 2,000 external studios, providing user acquisition, monetization, and product support. - **Other notable titles**: Paper.io, Helix Jump, Hole.io, Aquapark.io, Snake vs Block, Baseball Boy. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: €1.7 billion (as of August 2021, per Groupe Bruxelles Lambert stake) - **Key Metric**: Annual revenue of $670 million in 2024 (up from $570 million in 2023) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Tencent (minority stake, 2020), Goldman Sachs (minority stake), Groupe Bruxelles Lambert (16% stake, 2021) - **Growth Signals**: - 8 billion total downloads, 150 million monthly active users - 20% revenue growth and strong profitability in 2024 - Acquisition of BeReal for €500M to expand into social apps - Headcount grew from ~750 (2023) to 800+ (2024) - Opened offices in Singapore, Japan, Istanbul, and Montreal to support global expansion ## Competitive Advantages - **Data-driven rapid prototyping**: Launches nearly one game per week, testing retention and playtime metrics to iterate quickly. - **Massive scale and distribution**: 8 billion downloads and a network of 2,000+ external studios give Voodoo unmatched reach in mobile gaming. - **Successful pivot**: Transitioned from hyper-casual to hybrid-casual games and apps, demonstrating adaptability to market changes. - **Strong monetization**: In-app purchases and advertising revenue; Mob Control and Block Jam each generated nearly $100 million. ## Strategic Focus - **Diversification beyond hyper-casual**: Investing in hybrid-casual games and social apps (BeReal, Wizz) to build resilient revenue streams. - **Asia-Pacific expansion**: Leveraging Tencent partnership and new offices in Singapore and Japan. - **Continued innovation**: Maintaining a high-velocity testing culture while scaling the publishing platform to attract more external developers. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Values include speed, risk-taking, direct feedback, fighting bureaucracy, high standards, ownership, and long-term thinking.
