Senior programmatic media specialist driving ROI through data-led programmatic strategy and cross-functional collaboration.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior programmatic media and collaborations specialist with extensive experience optimizing media performance, managing programmatic buying strategies, and leading cross-functional teams to meet brand KPIs. I have a strong track record in audience targeting, header bidding, bidding techniques, and automation projects that improve campaign ROI.
At AnalyticaHouse I developed persona-based 360-degree media plans, negotiated commercial agreements with media platforms, and managed vendor relationships and financial reconciliation processes. I led DCO/DDCO strategies across DSPs, implemented programmatic automation and real-time reporting via GA4, and prepared data-driven presentations for pitches and performance reviews.
I combine hands-on technical proficiency across DSPs, ad servers, MMPs, analytics and visualization tools with strategic media planning and partnership management to deliver cost-effective campaigns and measurable business outcomes.
