SSP reliability and scalability

Equativ · Apr 2025 – Sep 2025 · high-throughput advertising platform

Equativ's SSP serves advertising traffic at a scale where small instabilities can become outages. I worked on its reliability and scalability, especially across geolocation, segment management and bidding configuration. I also worked on the infrastructure and automated tests that keep those services dependable.

What I did

I stabilised the geolocation, segment-management and bidding-configuration modules, implemented IPv6 support and advanced HTTP header parsing, and optimised caching and throttling for throughput. I refactored core modules to reduce complexity, and expanded the automated test suite with xUnit and Moq. I contributed to the CI/CD modernisation with Kubernetes and Argo CD.
