• Proven success building advertiser self-serve platforms or two-sided marketplaces (retailers + advertisers).
• Strong technical fluency: APIs, ad delivery systems, data pipelines, reporting platforms.
• Deep knowledge of ad tech ecosystem (DSPs/SSPs, ad servers, bidding, attribution, identity resolution).
• Familiarity with first-party retail data, shopper behavior, and closed-loop measurement.
• Track record of taking products from 0→1 and scaling adoption.
• Excellent stakeholder management and executive communication skills.
