Independent Board Director (ML-Driven Product & Data Platform Leader)

Appodeal

San Francisco, CA • Remote

$274K - $287K/yr

Full-time

Re-posted 29 days ago

Job description

Appodeal is a dynamic US-based product company with a truly global presence.

We have offices in Warsaw, Barcelona and Parkland (FL), along with remote team members located around the world.

Our company thrives on diversity, collaboration, and innovation, making us a leader in the mobile app monetization space.

Why Appodeal?

At Appodeal, we're more than just a company—we're a team united by a common mission: Help people discover and grow their talents through products that enable successful mobile app businesses!

We take pride in our cutting-edge product and our internationally dispersed team of talented professionals.

Here's what we value, and what we hope you do too:

  • Continuous Learning and Growth: We are passionate about learning, growing personally, and building rewarding careers.
  • Making an Impact: We are committed to building a history-defining company that leaves a lasting impact on the mobile app industry.
  • Solving Exciting Challenges: We tackle complex problems every day, supported by a team of world-class professionals and mentors.
  • Enjoying the Journey: We believe in having fun while working toward our goals.

We are seeking an independent board director with deep experience operating ML-driven products and data platforms at scale.

This role is not focused on academic research or algorithm development. Instead, we are looking for a leader who has built organizations where data, experimentation, and machine learning directly drive product decisions, optimization, and revenue growth.

The ideal candidate brings expertise in areas such as:

  • building strong data science organizations;
  • designing data platforms and experimentation infrastructure;
  • integrating ML into product decision loops;
  • developing operating cultures built around data and experimentation;

This is a non-executive board position, not an operating role.

Appodeal is building a performance-driven technology platform powered by data and machine learning.

Our systems rely on:

  • large-scale data pipelines;
  • real-time decision systems;
  • automated optimization;
  • experimentation and model iteration.

The company operates an ecosystem including:

  • advertising infrastructure;
  • demand-side platform (DSP);
  • supply-side platform (SSP);
  • mobile game publishing and development.

Machine learning and data infrastructure are core to the company's long-term competitive advantage.

Strategic Focus of the Role

The mission of this role is to strengthen the board's ability to guide the company in building a world-class data and machine learning organization.

The director will contribute a perspective on:

  • structuring and scaling data science teams;
  • designing experimentation-driven product cultures;
  • building high-quality data platforms and infrastructure;
  • integrating ML systems into business decision processes;
  • best practices for data-driven product development;
  • organizational structures that allow ML systems to improve continuously.

This role focuses on how ML-driven companies operate, rather than on the underlying algorithms themselves.

Responsibilities

Board members are expected to:

  • Participate in quarterly board meetings;
  • Provide independent strategic guidance to the CEO and leadership team;
  • Contribute to discussions around data platform strategy and ML-driven product development;
  • Provide perspective on organizational structure for data science and ML teams;
  • Help evaluate major technical and infrastructure investments;
  • Share insight from companies where ML directly drives business outcomes;
  • Board members are not involved in day-to-day operations.


Ideal Background

We are looking for a technology or product leader who has built ML-driven product organizations where data science plays a central role in revenue generation and product optimization.

Prior board experience is welcome but not required.

What We Value

We are looking for individuals who bring:

  • deep experience running ML-driven product organizations:
  • strong operational judgment;
  • experience building data-driven engineering cultures;
  • an independent mindset;
    willingness to challenge assumptions constructively.

Time Commitment

Estimated commitment: approximately four weeks per year. This includes preparation and participation in board meetings as well as occasional strategic discussions with the leadership team.

With an outstanding product and a mission that excites and inspires, Appodeal offers a unique opportunity to make an impact while being part of an amazing team.

Join us and help shape the future of mobile app success!
