- Software engineering fundamentals relevant to ad tech: API integration, SDK implementation, RESTful services, JSON, and troubleshooting client–server interactions
- Hands-on data analysis and troubleshooting using logs, performance metrics and dashboards to diagnose delivery, targeting and reporting issues
