- Build and maintain integrations with advertising platform and martech APIs — including: auth, rate limits, pagination, schema drift, and backfills

- Build monitoring and alerting for data quality, so problems surface before stakeholders find them
- Diagnose and resolve data issues, including the ambiguous ones with no obvious owner
- Ship production-ready work: tested, validated, monitored
- Document what you build well enough that we can operate it when you're not on a project with us
- Make technical decisions, justify them, and raise tradeoffs early rather than after the fact
- Give clear status updates and flag blockers fast
