Platform Oversight

  • Serve as the internal SME for integration platforms including Everflow, Impact, Invoca, Shopify, Google Analytics, GTM, and Intelsios proprietary CRM.

  • Manage and validate tracking configurations, custom events, and webhook implementations.

  • Coordinate cross-platform reconciliation (e.g., Invoca Everflow, Impact Everflow) and campaign-level diagnostics.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Interface with Business Intelligence and Engineering teams to ensure data pipelines and reporting (e.g., Redshift Tableau) reflect accurate campaign data.

  • Partner with Sales, Operations, Partner, and Media teams to provide technical leadership during onboarding and performance optimization phases.

  • Maintain a prioritized backlog in Jira, managing OB (onboarding), support, and tracking-related tickets.

R&D & Automation

  • Identify opportunities to streamline manual technical workflows through automation and tooling.

  • Support evaluation of new marketing, analytics, or integration platforms aligned with business growth.

  • Maintain centralized documentation for internal and external use (via Confluence or similar).

  • 2+ years of leadership or team-building experience, ideally in a startup or growth-stage environment

  • Expert-level proficiency in:
