Google Ad Manager and VAST Video Ads Specialist for Streaming App Monetization
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
Title
Google Ad Manager and VAST Video Ads Specialist for Streaming App Monetization
Job Description
We are looking for an experienced Google Ad Manager and video monetization specialist to review, finalize, and optimize video ad delivery for a streaming application using VAST tags. The core goal is to ensure reliable pre roll and optional mid roll video ads are serving correctly and monetizing traffic without interrupting the streaming experience.
The role will start with an in depth audit of our existing Google Ad Manager setup, including user permissions, inventory structure, ad units, placements, and current VAST tag configuration. The specialist will assess our current account status, identify blockers such as AdSense verification or account linking limitations, and clearly explain where we stand and what steps are required to move forward.
Responsibilities include setting up or refining Google Ad Manager inventory for video ads, generating and validating VAST tags, and ensuring they are correctly implemented in the streaming app or server side player. The specialist should be able to troubleshoot ad serving issues, test delivery across devices, and confirm impressions and fill rate through reporting. While AdSense may not yet be verified, the candidate should be comfortable running monetization through Ad Manager demand first and preparing the account for proper AdSense linking once approved.
The role also involves reviewing Google Analytics integration to ensure basic measurement is in place and advising how analytics data can be used to improve ad performance and CPM, even though analytics URLs themselves are not directly monetized. Clear communication is important, including short status updates, findings, and recommendations.
The initial phase is primarily review, validation, and guidance, followed by implementation and testing. Availability to start with an account review immediately is preferred, with flexibility around holidays as long as expectations are clearly communicated.
Required Skills and Experience
Strong experience with Google Ad Manager video inventory and VAST tags
Hands on experience monetizing streaming or video apps (mobile, web, or OTT)
Understanding of Google Ads, AdSense, and account linking requirements
Ability to troubleshoot permissions, policy, and verification issues
Experience testing and validating video ad delivery and reporting
Clear communication and ability to explain technical status simply
Nice to Have
Experience with live streaming or on demand video apps
Knowledge of common video players or SDKs
Experience improving fill rate and CPM through targeting and setup
