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.

Programmatic advertising is at an inflection point. AI is reshaping how campaigns are built, optimized, and measured — and The Trade Desk is at the center of that shift, giving advertisers the tools to compete on the open internet without surrendering to walled gardens. As a Trading Analyst in Tokyo, you won't just manage campaigns — you'll be the strategic intelligence layer between data and decisions, helping Japan's leading brands and agencies unlock the full potential of data-driven media. If you're fluent in both numbers and narratives, and you want your work to matter at scale, this is your role.
