· Act as the primary technical lead on client calls, owning technical discussions, troubleshooting reviews, and optimization proposals
· Clearly explain technical concepts, tradeoffs, and recommendations to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
· Serve as the escalation owner for high‑severity technical issues
· Proactively monitor trading and performance metrics to identify risks and optimization opportunities
· Drive measurable improvements in yield, performance, and integration stability
· Partner with Analytics to build and refine tools, dashboards, and optimization processes
· Translate client needs into clear technical requirements, collaborating with Product & Engineering to influence solutions and roadmap priorities
· Produce, maintain, and set standards for technical documentation and best practices
· Mentor junior team members and act as a subject‑matter expert within Yield Operations
· Stay ahead of industry, privacy, and ecosystem changes, incorporating insights into platform, tooling, and process improvements
