Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Serve as first-line solutions lead for brands & agencies accessing our marketplace

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with campaign trafficking, tag management, and third-party measurement or verification vendors

  • Experience sitting in on sales calls to answer the technical questions and scope feasibility on the spot
  • The range to debug a tracking discrepancy with an agency in the morning and spec an internal tool with an engineer in the afternoon
  • An operator's instinct for process: you build systems that scale without over-engineering before there's volume to justify it
  • Familiarity with how creator sponsorships are sold, delivered, and measured is a plus
  • Experience with APIs, workflow automation, or light scripting (Python, JavaScript) is a plus
