The Trade Desk is a global technology company and the world’s leading independent platform for digital advertising, with nearly 4,000 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.

The Director, Growth Solutions is a new role at TTD. As the Director of Growth Solutions for Growth, you are the player-coach building and leading TTD’s first dedicated technical pre-sales function for new logo acquisition. You partner with Acquire Sales leadership, and their teams (BD) to land net-new advertisers — compressing time to contract and time to first dollar by focusing the team on the right deals, curating the technical knowledge that wins them, and acting as connective tissue across the functional teams that surround every complex sale.

You won’t choose between leading and selling — you’ll do both. You’ll be in the room on the biggest deals, and in the standup the next morning coaching the team through the next ones. Positioning you carry into every room: The Trade Desk is a premium product for premium outcomes.

As our Director, Growth Solutions you must demonstrate the following:

10+ years in solutions engineering, solutions consulting, or technical pre-sales in enterprise B2B
3+ years leading Sales Engineering, technical pre-sales teams, or Growth Solutions Managers; demonstrated success developing individual contributors
Track record landing complex new logos with seven- and eight-figure annual potential
Deep adtech/martech fluency — DSP, CDP, identity, measurement, clean rooms — and the ability to translate it for non-technical executives
Strong opinions on measurement: attribution, incrementally, MMM, and how to make outcomes credible to a CMO
Player-coach instincts — equally comfortable closing the biggest deal of the quarter and giving direct feedback to a Growth Strategist in real time
Excellent written communication; you produce documentation that moves deals forward, not just records them
Comfort building from zero: this role doesn’t inherit a playbook, it writes one
