• Build and operationalize clear, consistent frameworks, methodologies, and tools that support title-level decisions, content valuation, portfolio composition and prioritization, global optimization, audience behavior, and originals vs. licensing vs. partnership trade-offs.
• Embed analytics leadership into cross-functional squads focused on Engagement, Retention, and AI, ensuring content insights are integrated into subscriber, marketing, and business strategy.
• Partner with data engineering to deliver the infrastructure and data products required to support the analytics roadmap.
