Sr. Sales Engineer, Performance

• Location: New York
• Role: Senior Sales Engineer, Performance & Emerging Solutions
• Location: New York, NY

THE OPPORTUNITY

We are seeking a Senior Sales Engineer, Performance to help define and scale MiQ’s approach to performance and outcome-driven advertising across the U.S. business.

This role will focus on client challenges tied to lower-funnel KPIs and measurable business outcomes across MiQ’s ecosystem, including Programmatic, YouTube, Social and emerging AI Search environments. This includes areas such as acquisition, conversion, revenue, mobile app growth and efficiency. Within that broader performance remit, this person will also help MiQ develop and scale strategic growth areas including mobile performance, CTV performance, AI-powered advertising and advanced measurement, with priorities evolving alongside client demand and MiQ’s capabilities.

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who is comfortable operating across multiple capabilities, verticals and teams rather than owning a single fixed product area. The successful candidate will combine strong performance media fundamentals with technical fluency, commercial judgment and the ability to quickly develop expertise in new areas as priorities evolve.

You will sit at the intersection of Sales, Product, Partnerships and Marketing, helping translate complex capabilities into clear client solutions while bringing market needs back into the organization.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Serve as a senior subject-matter expert for performance and outcome-driven opportunities, partnering with Sales on discovery, solution design, pitches, RFPs and strategic client conversations.

Translate client objectives such as acquisition, qualified leads, sales, revenue, app growth and efficiency into thoughtful media, data, activation and measurement recommendations.

Connect MiQ’s capabilities into integrated, omnichannel solutions, helping sellers and clients navigate considerations including KPI strategy, optimization, attribution, incrementality and measurement.

Help shape and scale MiQ’s approach to emerging performance opportunities, including AI-powered and conversational advertising, identifying relevant use cases and translating new capabilities into clear, practical sales narratives.

Partner closely with Rocket Lab and MiQ teams to grow MiQ’s mobile performance offering, serving as a bridge between teams and helping bring app acquisition, re-engagement, retention and other mobile growth capabilities into broader client strategies.

Work alongside Sales and Analytics teams to pitch and scope advanced measurement capabilities in ways that are commercially relevant and easy for clients to understand.

Develop expertise quickly as new platforms, technologies and client needs emerge, helping determine where MiQ has an opportunity to test, invest and build repeatable solutions.

Identify recurring client needs, market trends and capability gaps and bring those insights back to Product, Partnerships, Marketing and other internal teams to inform future priorities.

Build scalable narratives, use cases, frameworks, case studies and enablement that help sellers confidently position MiQ’s performance capabilities across verticals.

Partner with vertical and channel Sales Engineers when performance opportunities intersect with their areas of expertise, bringing the right capabilities together around the broader client challenge.

Manage multiple strategic priorities and evolving areas of focus, creating clarity and momentum even when the playbook is still being developed.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• MiQ has a clear and compelling performance narrative tied to measurable business outcomes.
• Sales teams have a trusted senior partner for complex lower-funnel and outcome-driven opportunities.
• Strategic growth areas such as mobile performance, AI advertising and advanced measurement are increasingly integrated into MiQ’s broader performance offering as client demand and capabilities mature.
• Emerging capabilities move from one-off opportunities into clear, repeatable commercial motions where appropriate.
• Client and market feedback helps shape product, partnership and go-to-market priorities.
• Performance solutions become increasingly scalable across verticals rather than relying on one-off custom approaches.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

• 7+ years of experience across digital advertising, ad tech, performance marketing, solutions consulting, sales engineering or a related field.
• Strong understanding of performance marketing and lower-funnel KPIs, including acquisition, conversion, ROAS, LTV, qualified leads and incrementality.
• Strong knowledge of the digital advertising ecosystem and how media, data, technology, optimization and measurement work together to drive specific outcomes.
• Experience translating complex client objectives into clear, commercially viable solutions.
• Strong client-facing communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to engage both technical stakeholders and senior commercial audiences.
• Experience working cross-functionally with teams such as Sales, Product and Marketing.
• Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies, products or media environments quickly and turn that knowledge into practical client solutions.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity, managing multiple priorities and working in areas where the playbook is still being developed.
• Strong commercial judgment and the ability to balance what is technically possible, operationally scalable and valuable to the client.

EXPERIENCE THAT WOULD BE ESPECIALLY VALUABLE

• The strongest candidates will bring deep performance marketing expertise, along with meaningful experience in one or more of the following areas:
• Mobile performance, app growth, user acquisition or mobile measurement.
• Advanced measurement and analytics, including MMM, incrementality, attribution or experimentation.
• Launching or scaling new advertising, data or measurement capabilities.
• Emerging media or advertising environments, including AI-powered platforms.
• Performance-focused strategy across multiple channels, verticals or client use cases.
