  • Collaborate with marketing channel owners to implement campaigns that enhance engagement and awareness within the merchant, developer and partner communities
  • Conduct research on target audiences, including their needs, motivations, market trends, and competitive offerings, to inform segmentation, narrative development, and go-to-market strategy
