About the role

You will map what a client already has, design the architecture they need, and lead the integrations, data models and consent flows that get them there.

You will advise on vendors without bias — we have no reseller deals — and design measurement that a CFO would accept, with consent handled correctly under the DPDP Act from the first event.

What you will do

  1. Map current stacks and design target architectures
  2. Lead integrations, data models and consent flows
  3. Set measurement plans and attribution approaches
  4. Guide clients through vendor selection without bias

How we hire for this role

5 steps, and a reply after every one.

The same five stages we use for every role. Timings are targets; when one slips, we tell you.

  1. Within 5 working days

    Step 1: Read

    A practitioner in the practice reads your application — your links first, your CV second. No keyword filter, no agency.

  2. Week 1 · 45 min

    Step 2: Conversation

    The hiring lead: the role, your work, and the level and salary band — before you invest more time in us.

  3. Week 2 · 2–3 h, paid

    Step 3: Work sample

    A short exercise close to the job, or a deep review of work you have already done. Paid, and never unpaid spec work.

    Work sample · the brief

  4. Week 3 · half a day

    Step 4: Team day

    Meet the people you would work with, in a studio or on video. Ask them anything; they will answer honestly.

  5. Week 3–4

    Step 5: Offer

    In writing, with the level, the salary, the full benefits and a start date that suits you. No exploding deadlines.

What helps an application

  • A link to work you made, with your own part in it named.
  • One project you could talk through for half an hour.
  • If you used AI, a line on how you checked what it produced.
  • Plain words. We read for substance, not polish.

Adjustments. Extra time, questions in advance, captions, a different format — tell us on the form or by email. Asking never counts against you.
