We are seeking an independent board director with deep experience operating ML-driven products and data platforms at scale.

This role is not focused on academic research or algorithm development. Instead, we are looking for a leader who has built organizations where data, experimentation, and machine learning directly drive product decisions, optimization, and revenue growth.

The ideal candidate brings expertise in areas such as:

building strong data science organizations;

designing data platforms and experimentation infrastructure;

integrating ML into product decision loops;

developing operating cultures built around data and experimentation;

This is a non-executive board position, not an operating role.

Appodeal is building a performance-driven technology platform powered by data and machine learning.

Our systems rely on:

large-scale data pipelines;

real-time decision systems;

automated optimization;

experimentation and model iteration.

The company operates an ecosystem including:

advertising infrastructure;

demand-side platform (DSP);

supply-side platform (SSP);

mobile game publishing and development.

Machine learning and data infrastructure are core to the company’s long-term competitive advantage.

Strategic Focus of the Role

The mission of this role is to strengthen the board’s ability to guide the company in building a world-class data and machine learning organization.

The director will contribute a perspective on:

structuring and scaling data science teams;

designing experimentation-driven product cultures;

building high-quality data platforms and infrastructure;

integrating ML systems into business decision processes;

best practices for data-driven product development;

organizational structures that allow ML systems to improve continuously.

This role focuses on how ML-driven companies operate, rather than on the underlying algorithms themselves.

Responsibilities

Board members are expected to:

Participate in quarterly board meetings;

Provide independent strategic guidance to the CEO and leadership team;

Contribute to discussions around data platform strategy and ML-driven product development;

Provide perspective on organizational structure for data science and ML teams;

Help evaluate major technical and infrastructure investments;
