Our Performance team at Teads 

Teads Performance journey started in 2018, with the creation of the first mid-funnel offering aiming to generate clicks and qualified traffic for our clients, with premium and responsible ad experiences. Fully relying on proprietary technology, this offering has been evolving to offer greater capabilities, and it represented over a third of Teads turnover in 2022. 

Since the beginning of the year, Teads has been progressively rolling-out a lower-funnel offering to now focus on conversions for our clients. This is a strategic area of very high growth.

  • Rich and diverse tech stack and system architecture to optimize for performance, scalability, resiliency, and cost efficiency. We use mostly Scala and TypeScript, among others.
  • Management of large datasets with milliseconds order of magnitude access time, to compute in a near real-time complex auction resolution algorithm (18 million predictions per second).
  • Build efficient and easy-to-use web products used by thousands of users working for the world's most premium publishers, advertisers, and agencies.
  • A fast-changing environment where we continuously collaborate with Product teams and constantly adapt our Cloud infrastructure for new features and Products.
