• Own recurring performance deep-dives on key business drivers: acquisition, activation, engagement, retention, revenue, churn, and unit economics
• Proactively identify trends, risks, and opportunities by building KPI monitoring and anomaly alerting
• Establish standards and best practices for metric creation, reporting, and usage across teams
• Enable self-serve analytics by creating repeatable reporting patterns, templates, and 'how-to' guidance that scale across teams

• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Finance, Sales, and Business Development to ensure alignment and consistency in how success is measured
• Partner with Data/Engineering on data quality and instrumentation to ensure event tracking and pipelines support reliable measurement
