Product: Aliens vs Zombies: Invasion. Role: take full ownership of incent direction: rewarded sources portfolio, bidding, event funnel design and systematic optimization. Responsibilities: - Attract players from incent/rewarded sources: playtime and loyalty networks, offerwalls, GPT/rewards platforms; expand source portfolio and test new partners. - Design and iteratively optimize event funnels for each source. Determine number of steps, reward budget distribution, and anchor point for paying players. - Synchronize buying with LiveOps calendar: launch incent cohorts during event windows with higher monetization and consider this when reading ROAS. - Manage bidding, budgets, and scaling speed across source/geo/platform/sub-source; maintain target CPA and ROAS while scaling. - Handle commercial negotiations with networks: test budgets, CPI/CPE/CPA rate negotiation, rebates and bonuses, placement priority, access to betas and new formats. - Together with analytics and partners, set up event mapping and S2S postbacks, monitor attribution correctness and event integrity. - Control traffic quality: fraud, emulators and farms, multi-accounts, reward hunters, abnormal CR between steps, scrub rate; blacklist sub-sources and placements. - Calculate performance considering hybrid monetization. - Test new sources, reward mechanics, creative and landing formats within offerwalls. - Work closely with game design/producers, LiveOps and analytics; potentially participate in developing special configs for incent traffic. - Build and maintain internal knowledge base on incent funnels and guides for each source. - Automate work through active use of AI assistants for assembly, reporting automation, and summarizing conclusions.

2+ years of traffic buying experience, including 1+ year specifically in incent/rewarded (playtime, loyalty, offerwall, GPT networks). Experience in mobile GameDev is required; understanding of game progression, tutorial funnel and in-game economy. Experience in TD/strategy/mid-core with LiveOps is a strong plus.
