Raptive’s Alexis Chitwood named as one of 2025 Top Women in Media & Ad Tech

Congratulations to Alexis Chitwood, Senior Director of Engineering Operations, for being named one of this year’s Top Women in Media & Ad Tech! Alexis is an honoree in the Sell-Side Tech Trailblazer category, which celebrates women who are breaking barriers in product and engineering, the most male-dominated sectors of the media and advertising industry. 

Alexis has a unique perspective as both an independent creator and a technology leader, making sure our ad solutions are scalable, high-performing, and aligned with creators’ needs. Under her leadership, Raptive has gained a competitive advantage, ensuring seamless, error-free feature releases that enhance creator and advertiser experiences. 

Alexis is known for her incredible work, which includes pioneering AI-driving testing methodologies. She has minimized manual effort by automating testing processes while increasing test coverage to an industry-leading 95% for critical ad tech features. Her optimization has also reduced lead time for feature launches by 25%, setting a new industry benchmark for efficiency and reliability. 

And her impact stretches far beyond her day-to-day. Alexis mentors women in engineering and leadership and is a driving force behind Raptive’s company-wide hackathons, contributing to a culture of continuous innovation. 

On June 5, AdExchanger and AdMonsters will present awards to the honorees at the Top Women Awards Gala in New York City. 

We are incredibly proud to have Alexis on the team, and are so thrilled to see her recognized as one of the Top Women in Media & Ad Tech for 2025!
