At IONOS, the leading European provider of cloud infrastructure, cloud services and hosting services, you will work together with a wide range of teams.

You know how programmatic works, and you want to do more with it than just book campaigns. With us, you get the chance to shape our digital media operation from the inside: hands-on, operational, and with a clear mandate to make our processes smarter and more efficient through AI.
You will take full ownership of our programmatic video, CTV, online video, and paid social campaigns, while at the same time developing a real understanding of how AI tools can automate the way we work. You're someone who gets things done, thinks ahead, and wants to help build something.
