Develop and refine prompt templates that enhance output quality and relevance from AI tools. Contribute to model training or fine-tuning initiatives (where applicable) to improve advertising outcomes. Promote responsible and ethical AI use across campaign touchpoints. Generate compelling ad creatives and copy using AI tools aligned with performance goals and brand guidelines.

Solid understanding of digital advertising platforms (e.g., Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, Bing Ads), including campaign structures, targeting options, and bidding strategies. Working knowledge of ad-serving technologies, conversion tracking (e.g., Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel), and attribution models.

Experience executing predefined AI workflows (e.g., audience segmentation, ad creative suggestions, budget allocation recommendations). Ability to test, compare, and provide structured feedback on AI-generated copy or targeting outputs. Familiarity with prompt iteration: modifying, refining, and selecting prompts to achieve more relevant ad outputs.
