Partner with data engineering and marketing teams to align upstream ingestion (including API‑based data sources) with downstream modeling and reporting needs. Influence technical direction and drive alignment across teams in a highly matrixed environment. Lead complex initiatives to improve data consistency, comparability, and usability across marketing analytics. Mentor and guide analytics engineers, elevating modeling practices and technical rigor across the team. What You'll Bring Experience shaping and implementing analytics engineering practices and standards, particularly for marketing or digital advertising data. Strong hands‑on experience working with APIs from major advertising platforms (e.g., Google Ads, Meta, TikTok), including data ingestion and normalization challenges.
