A Master's degree in a relevant discipline is preferred.4-6 years of overall experience in digital analytics or measurement implementation, including demonstrable hands-on delivery with AppsFlyer and GA4/GTM in production environments.Relevant certifications (e.g. Google Analytics / GA4, AppsFlyer, or Tealium/GTM) are an advantage.What success looks likeWithin the engagement, tracking on the target app(s) is verified and remediated, GA4 and AppsFlyer figures reconcile, and the client receives a clear readout of previously invisible metrics: traffic, purchases, spend, and cost per outcome, that they can trust and act on.
