@ehteshamansari
Performance marketing specialist driving ROAS improvements via search arbitrage and feed monetization.
What I'm looking for
I am a performance marketing and media buying specialist with over four years' experience managing large-scale daily ad budgets across Meta, TikTok, Taboola, Outbrain and Google, and delivering measurable ROAS uplifts in Tier-1 markets. I combine analytical rigor with creative testing—using tools like ClickFlare and GA4—to optimize campaigns, automate reporting, and reduce CPC/CPA while scaling profitable traffic.
Throughout my career I have led media buying teams, mentored junior buyers, partnered with feed providers, and introduced systematic creative and feed-testing processes that improved ROI, CTR and operational efficiency. I am focused on remote roles in search arbitrage, DTC, e-commerce and lead gen where I can help publishers and agencies scale ad campaigns profitably.
