• Explore and launch emerging marketing channels (e.g. AI chat surfaces, smart TVs, native placements), with a test-and-learn mindset and structured evaluation of performance.
• Partner closely with internal digital strategy, product, and engineering teams to align growth goals with platform capabilities.
• Ensure clarity and alignment on campaign briefs, translating business goals into actionable growth tactics across owned and paid assets.
• Maintain oversight of paid media (e.g. Paid Search, Social, Display, Video) while shifting emphasis toward quality placements and innovative visibility strategies.
• Champion automation, data-driven experimentation, and continuous performance optimization across all touchpoints.
• Set annual media strategy across verticals, with a focus on unlocking new audience pathways and sustainable growth levers.
  
  

• Demonstrated experience with technical and content SEO, including schema, indexation strategy, and LLP architecture.
• Strong knowledge of ASO best practices, with hands-on experience optimizing app listings and creatives.
• Passion for new technologies and AI-led marketing; familiarity with the adtech ecosystem in platforms like ChatGPT or Perplexity is a strong plus.
• Fluency in Google Marketing Platform tools (SA360, DV360, GA360, Campaign Manager).
• Experience working with Mobile Measurement Platforms (e.g., Adjust) and understanding multi-touch attribution.
• Familiarity with dashboarding tools (e.g., Looker Studio) and performance tracking.
