The problem

Most tracking failures happen where marketing urgency meets engineering backlog.

For Marketing & Growth Teams

  • Ad platform signal loss from browser restrictions and ad blockers draining ROAS.
  • Conversion numbers that never reconcile between Meta, GA4, Mixpanel, and internal DBs.
  • Delayed campaign launches due to long engineering queues for basic tag updates.

For Product & Engineering Teams

  • Analytics tickets polluting core product roadmaps and engineering sprints.
  • Fragile client-side scripts breaking silent user sessions after frontend releases.
  • Inherited tracking debt buried across unmaintained backend event handlers.

The Gap: Marketers shouldn't push production code. Engineers shouldn't have to manage ad tags. We bridge that gap.

The approach

An embedded analytics engineer for architecture, implementation, and ongoing data integrity.

Why work with me

Engineering rigor applied to marketing data.

I work inside your repo

Not just a tag manager interface. Feature branches, pull requests, code reviews, and multi-environment deploys.

Built to withstand releases

Regression checks and staging validation so instrumentation doesn't break when new code ships.

Compliant and still measurable

Consent Mode v2 and POPIA-aligned setups configured to protect privacy while preserving critical growth signals.
