• 5–7 years of experience in program management, business operations, partnerships, or monetization roles (preferably in ad-tech, search, or performance marketing)
• Strong ability to manage cross-functional stakeholders and drive execution in a fast-paced environment
• High ownership mindset with attention to detail and problem-solving ability
• Comfort working with data, dashboards, and performance metrics
• Excellent communication and organizational skills
• Familiarity with search monetization, performance marketing, or ad-tech ecosystems is a strong plus
