Magnite (NASDAQ:MGNI), the world’s largest independent sell-side
advertising platform, today announced the appointment of David
Buonasera as its Chief Technology Officer. Buonasera joined Magnite
in 2021 when the company acquired SpringServe, the video ad serving
platform he co-founded. Most recently, Buonasera has led Magnite’s
engineering efforts for CTV and served as a member of the company’s
Office of the CTO. In his new role, he will oversee Magnite’s
global technology organization, platforms, and infrastructure,
reporting to its President and CEO, Michael Barrett.
“David is a phenomenal leader and technologist,”
said Barrett. “For nearly two years at Magnite, he’s proven his
capabilities not just as a visionary and strategist, but as an
agile operator who gets things done and moves at the speed our
clients require. The executive team and I are thrilled to partner
with him as we continue to build Magnite into the industry’s
leading sell-side ad tech company.”
Buonasera has more than a decade of advertising
technology experience. In 2016, he helped found SpringServe,
scaling the company to a leader in video ad serving with an
impressive global client list. Before SpringServe, Buonasera was
one of the first employees at AppNexus, where he spearheaded the
creation of their data processing systems and optimization
algorithms.
"I'm honored to be leading technology at Magnite,"
said Buonasera. "This company has built one of the strongest
technology stacks and organizations in the business, and with the
recent announcement of Magnite Streaming, we're just beginning to
deliver a new wave of innovation, value, and usability for our
clients. I look forward to working closely with Michael and the
team to make our vision for Magnite a reality.”
