• Provide feasibility guidance on the testing roadmap across social and programmatic, turning learnings into action.
• Own media recommendations and launch support for key title releases and seasonal tentpoles across channels, ensuring the full paid media mix is positioned to deliver against goals.
• Lead, coach, and develop the paid media team across social and programmatic disciplines, setting priorities, standards, and clear expectations to build a robust, high-performing function.

• Hands-on experience planning, executing, and optimizing programmatic campaigns within at least one major DSP. Experience with audience and inventory targeting, bid strategy, and PMPs/private marketplace deals.
• Deep track record owning CPA and efficiency targets and managing large media budgets across channels and formats to performance goals.
• Experience developing audience strategy, testing for incrementality, and platform/channel testing, and using measurement to inform decisions.
