      • adjusting placement strategy to improve conversion or attach
      • resolving recurring operational blockers impacting performance

    • Identify recurring issues and opportunities for operational improvement; develop and implement solutions that increase execution quality, efficiency, and cross-functional alignment.
    • Contribute to ongoing development of governance frameworks that support consistent customer experiences across platforms and reduce promotional conflicts or execution variability.
