• Support tracking implementation and troubleshooting, including pixel tracking, event setup, and custom conversions.
• Identify and execute test-and-learn opportunities such as creative testing, audience experimentation, and new platform features. Should be comfortable implementing in-platform lift studies.
• Participate in campaign QA processes to ensure campaigns are launched according to best practices and agency standards.

• Understanding of travel marketing dynamics, including seasonal demand, geographic targeting, and traveler audience segmentation.
• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to interpret data and translate insights into optimizations.
