  • Connect analytics interfaces to data APIs and real-time data feeds, ensuring measurement accuracy and data freshness for operational reporting
  • Collaborate with analysts and product managers to translate requirements into polished UX

Collaboration & Standards

  • Contribute to engineering standards, code reviews, and technical documentation
