Skills
About the Role
You will own Gen's end-to-end web measurement infrastructure, acting as the primary technical authority on how behavioral data is collected, structured, and delivered across web properties. You'll define and govern the data layer specification, manage Tealium tag governance, oversee web instrumentation, marketing tagging, cookie and consent management, and drive the Amplitude digital analytics platform. You'll lead a small team of individual contributors, mentoring them and building their skills in data layer design, tag management, privacy, and analytics. You'll partner closely with engineering, marketing, legal, and privacy teams to ensure data flows reliably and compliantly, and you'll champion an instrumentation-first culture where tracking requirements are defined before code is written.
