Raptive is looking for an Ad Performance Analyst to join the Raptive team.

We help them figure out which ad placements to use, how to develop an ad strategy, and then install that strategy for them. Through our work, we help the best creators and contributors on the web: people who have a passion for their craft (cooking, decorating, parenting, finance, investing, and so many other niches) get to write about it and be paid to focus on their dream. We help families pay their bills and find hope. We help small business owners thrive. We support the people who are making the internet a better place!
