  • Represent the company at industry events as a brand ambassador, maintaining a deep understanding of market trends, competitors, evolving technologies, and client needs in the competitive landscape.
  • Develop self-service growth plans for programmatic audience solution customers and establish downstream opportunities across platform partners where applicable.
