“Sportradar ad:s” provides data-driven marketing and sponsorship services to the iGaming industry, designed to help deliver significant efficiency improvements for marketing investments. The ad:s team develops and provides purpose-built tools and services to meet the individual marketing needs of sportsbooks and media publishers worldwide.

The Paid Search team is developing tools that will integrate and analyze data from our clients’ chosen search advertising platforms, such as Google Ads and Microsoft Ads. This will empower our PPC experts to provide tailored guidance on improving account performance. Additionally, we aim to enhance client accounts through direct customisation, allowing us to dynamically update ads with live content from our internal feeds or those provided by clients.

From a technical perspective, our product consists of multiple microservices hosted entirely in a cloud environment with AWS. We employ Terraform used as infrastructure-as-code (IaC), ensuring consistent and efficient environment management. Our backend is predominantly developed with NodeJS & Typescript. We deploy to AWS Lambdas for our APIs, which connect to Amazon DynamoDB for handling mutable data. Additionally, we manage substantial data volumes stored in Amazon S3, which are subsequently crawled and analysed using AWS Glue and Athena. To facilitate communication between our services, we utilise a combination of Amazon SNS and SQS, providing a robust and scalable messaging system. The front-end is built with Vue.js, leveraging PNPM for fast and efficient package management, and Turborepo for orchestrating the monorepo. We work in a trunk-based development setup, promoting collaboration, rapid integration and early feedback to accelerate delivery and maintain high code quality. Our continuous integration and deployments are managed through GitLab CI.
