• Strong experience with experimentation, funnel optimization, and analytics tools (e.g., Amplitude, Mode)

• Deep understanding of mobile product development and monetization in high-engagement consumer products

• Excellent business judgment with the ability to balance short-term revenue impact and long-term customer trust

• Strong customer empathy, particularly for users experiencing financial stress, and a commitment to transparent, user-first monetization strategies
