Bangalore
Windows Universal Store (Ads R&D)
• Lead a team of two and Implemented CPC (Cost per click) campaign model (Moving away from CPM, that is paying and charging per impression). Based on the conversion rate of the campaign, we tune the cost we charge per click, and therefore are able to control the cost per acquisition.
• Community Ads : This is a free ad campaigning program where the developers show ad from other
developers and receive credits. These credits can then be used by them to create their own ad
campaigns which will shows ads to the community. I worked on the analytics part of community
where we calculate credits received and spent by the developers and generate a daily stream.
• Ad Click Prediction model(logistic regression) to get probability of click per Third Party Ad Network
(TPAN), so that we can arrange the TPAN in the ad waterfall to get maximum ROI for an Ad.
• Campaign testing and experimentation to improve advertiser ROI : Reponsible for managing hand
held campaigns (tracking and modifying) for premium customers, helping them with custom
changes, which usually involve quick scripts/app building to assist them in scale.
• Analytics for fraud detection: Started a project for ad fraud detection and ran it single handedly for 3
months before moving it to an overseas team. I was responsible for bringing up top revenue
generating app with suspicious activity (too many adds in a few seconds, too many clicks, occluded
ad divs) and sending them for manual scrutiny.
