Extensive experience in performance marketing, with experience in crypto, gambling, or high-risk verticals
Deep understanding of paid media buying in both Web2 and Web3 ecosystems
Proven track record of scaling paid campaigns profitably
Experience with native ad platforms (e.g., Taboola, Outbrain, other), programmatic, and crypto-specific channels (e.g., Coinzilla, Bitmedia)
Familiarity with compliance, ad cloaking, GEO targeting, and ad account risk mitigation in gambling verticals
Advanced analytics skills and experience working with conversion tracking, postback URLs, and affiliate platforms
Entrepreneurial mindset — comfortable working in fast-paced, performance-driven environments
Nice to Have:
Experience working directly with or promoting crypto casinos / betting platforms
Understanding of on-chain analytics, wallets, and DeFi user behaviour
