  • Hands-on experience with AI tools and content workflow automation.
  • Experience managing structured content, templates or programmatic pages.
  • Proficiency in GA4, Google Search Console, Tableau or similar BI tools, and Excel/Google Sheets.
  • Proven ability to build, mentor and lead high-performing content teams.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
  • A first-principles approach to problem-solving and continuous learning.

Good to Have
