- Balance advertising revenue growth with user experience quality
Requirements:
- Experience in product management in digital / IT / advertising products, understanding of basic advertising metrics and monetization logic

- Strong communication skills: ability to negotiate with development, analytics, design, commerce, and related teams
- Structured and hands-on approach: ability to break down a complex task, write clear requirements, and bring a project to launch
