Someone for someone with experience in insights or advertising analytics and knowledge in the advertising space

HUMAN MADE MACHINE

Enterprise Sales Executive (NA) – Creative AI/Adtech

New York but open to East Coast

For the Enterprise Sales Executive role, the focus is on finding a high-level "Consultative Hunter" who can navigate the complex intersection of adtech, creative strategy, and enterprise brand procurement. The ideal candidate stands out by demonstrating a High Sales IQ, particularly in the ability to lead deep diagnostic discovery to uncover business pain points that legacy measurement tools miss. They must have a sophisticated understanding of the brand advertising measurement industry, with the technical confidence to debate the nuances of brand lift versus attribution and advise brands on platform suitability (e.g., why creative built for TV might fail on TikTok). A track record of selling directly to in-house brand teams and navigating the delicate triad between the brand, their creative agency, and tech providers is essential. Success in this role requires more than just closing deals; it requires the ability to link creative quality directly to commercial ROI and sales performance, proving the financial value of the platform to VPs of Insights and CMOs alike.

HUMAN MADE MACHINE

Research Manager

New York

For the Research Manager position, the candidate needs to demonstrate a high-level mastery of the research lifecycle combined with strong leadership. They should have extensive experience taking complex client briefs and architecting the full data strategy, including advising on the best technical setup for data collation. A standout candidate will have hands-on experience not just in oversight, but in the "heavy lifting" of collecting and quality-checking (QC’ing) data before presenting high-stakes findings to senior stakeholders. While technical skills in SQL or Python are a significant advantage for managing team output, the true differentiator is an AI-first mindset—using artificial intelligence to optimize research workflows and stay ahead of industry trends. Above all, they must be a mentor who can elevate a team of analysts to deliver world-class, ROI-driven insights for global brands.

HUMAN MADE MACHINE

Senior Research Analyst

New York

For the Senior Research Analyst position, the ideal candidate stands out by demonstrating a sophisticated blend of technical rigor and strategic storytelling. They should have a proven track record in creative message testing, moving beyond simple data collection to explain why specific creative elements resonate with audiences. A deep familiarity with both qualitative and quantitative survey panels is essential, as the role requires managing the full research lifecycle—from unbiased survey design to overseeing complex participant recruitment. While many analysts rely on manual exports, SQL proficiency is a massive advantage here, allowing for much faster data manipulation and the ability to uncover nuanced consumer trends that traditional tools might miss. Above all, the team values a "Strategic Consultant" mindset—someone who uses these technical tools to tell brands exactly how to optimize their media spend for maximum commercial impact.
