At Index Exchange, we're reinventing how digital advertising works—at scale. As a global advertising supply-side platform, we empower the world's leading media owners and marketers to thrive in a programmatic, privacy-first ecosystem.
We're a proud industry pioneer with over 20 years of experience accelerating the ad technology evolution. Our proprietary tech is trusted by some of the world's largest brands and media owners and plays a crucial role in keeping the internet open, accessible, and largely free.
We process more than 550 billion real-time auctions every day (in comparison, Google processes 8.5 billion searches per day) with ultra-low latency. Our platform is vertically integrated from servers to networks and runs primarily on our own metal and cloud infrastructure. This end-to-end infrastructure is designed to provide both stability and agility, enabling us to adapt quickly as the market evolves.
At the core of it all is our engineering-first culture. Our engineers tackle internet-scale problems across tight-knit, global teams. From moving petabytes of data and optimizing with AI to making real-time infrastructure decisions, Indexers have the agency and influence to shape the future of advertising. We move fast, build thoughtfully, and stay grounded in our core values.

The Exchange Products division builds the features that power our Exchange and drive real revenue. We're shaping the next generation of our platform, enabling external partners to grow their businesses by integrating inventory directly or extending our Exchange through our tech stack.
