👉 Analyze performance drops, find root causes and turn data into clear actions
👉 Coordinate campaigns and high-level e-commerce projects across teams
👉 Keep an eye on inventory, timelines and execution so nothing falls through the cracks
👉 Strong focus on AI workflows and automation across departments
👉 Clear growth path toward Head of Operations

👉 Very comfortable with data analysis, GA4, Shopify Analytics and Google Sheets
👉 Strong hands-on experience with Claude / ChatGPT and AI workflows
👉 Comfortable with Shopify, Meta Ads Manager and ClickUp/Asana
