  • Simplify complex technical topics into clear, actionable narratives for stakeholders from practitioners to senior executives.  

  • Inspire and align multi-disciplinary teams around a shared vision, fostering innovation, speed, and excellence.

  • Native, Content Discovery & Emerging Formats (Taboola, Outbrain, CTV, audio, retail media networks)  

  • Deploy diverse tactics such as app installs, re-engagement, OEM pre-loads, cross-promotion, SKAN-optimized buying, and product-led growth integrations.  

  • Integrate paid, owned, and earned efforts to deliver unified, cross-channel impact.  

  • Continuously evaluate new partners and formats to keep Microsoft at the forefront of mobile marketing innovation.  

  • Negotiate and manage strategic partnerships to secure premium placements, first-party integrations, and innovative solutions.  

Measurement, Data & Attribution  

  • Drive the vision for how data informs the client’s mobile marketing and business decisions.  

  • Develop strong POVs on app measurement best practices, including SKAN, privacy-first methodologies, and incrementality testing.  

  • Identify and lead initiatives to improve data aggregation and visualization—turning complex signals into clear, business-focused insights.  

  • Partner with analytics and engineering teams to define KPIs, guide dashboard development, and ensure privacy-compliant tracking via MMPs (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch).  

  • Communicate insights with clarity and impact, enabling data-driven strategies across the client’s organization.  

Team Management & Cross-Functional Collaboration  

  • Lead a multi-disciplinary team of mobile strategists, activation, analysts, and martech specialists dedicated to the client (will collaborate with SVP of Analytics and internal tech and data team)  

  • Foster deep collaboration with teams across creative, media, analytics, and tech integration, both agency- and client-side.  

  • Mentor talent and champion a culture of excellence, speed, and innovation.

  • Event-based optimization and user-level signal management  

  • Lifecycle marketing and re-engagement strategies  

  • OEM pre-loads and telco partnerships  

  • Demonstrated ability to manage significant media investments and performance KPIs, balancing efficiency with business impact.

  • Strong business acumen, with experience collaborating closely with product teams, analytics leaders, engineering partners, and senior marketing executives in complex enterprise environments.  

  • Skilled at translating complex technical and strategic topics into clear, actionable insights and executive-level narratives.
