• Monitor live KPIs during active campaigns, proactively identifying issues and working with Production and QA teams to troubleshoot and resolve them in real-time.
• Help driving the integration of AI and machine learning tools into the team’s tuning and optimization processes, enhancing data-driven decision-making for monetization strategies.
