- Ability to stay focused and adapt quickly in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to think critically.
- Familiarity with ping post systems and click buying platforms or similar
What We're Looking For...
- 3-5 years in proven experience in supply and demand analysis and strategy development, as well as lead buying & selling.
- Deep understanding of click-buying, media arbitrage, and supply/demand optimization.
- Experience in a day-trading-like environment or similar high-intensity decision-making roles.
- Knowledge of SQL or other data querying languages is a plus.
