Platform Monetization Technical Specialist

Role summary This is a short, sharply defined technical assignment — two months, front-loaded at the start of a larger revenue project. It is not a strategy or advisory role: strategic direction, pricing and commercial coaching are provided separately by two senior mentors arranged by the JX Fund. Your job is the technical work, and to leave our team able to maintain it. Duties and responsibilities Audit. Go through every Pajhwok platform account and monetization set-up — Facebook/Meta, YouTube, X/Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Google AdSense — and identify every technical, eligibility, policy, rights, verification and configuration fault that is reducing or blocking revenue. Give us a prioritised fix list ordered by revenue impact. Repair. Fix them. Where a fault cannot be resolved from our side, lodge and document a formal escalation or appeal with the platform. Measure. Build a revenue and analytics dashboard our staff can read and maintain, with a baseline against May 2026 and a repeatable monthly routine. Specify. Write the technical requirements for our CRM, subscription and payment workflow, and hand them to our web developer. Train and hand over. Train eight colleagues to maintain the settings, read the dashboard and diagnose recurring faults, and leave a written technical handover. From October the team runs it without you. Job requirements A demonstrable, hands-on record of fixing platform monetization faults on Meta/Facebook, the YouTube Partner Program and Google AdSense — eligibility, policy, rights and verification problems included. Please be ready to tell us about specific cases: what was wrong, what you did, and what happened to the revenue. This matters more to us than anything else on this list. At least three years working directly with publisher or broadcaster monetization at a technical level. Working command of platform analytics, and of SEO and metadata as they affect monetization. Able to specify CRM, subscription and payment requirements clearly enough for a developer to build from. Able to train non-technical colleagues to maintain what you have built. Professional fluency in English and reliable working overlap with Canada Eastern Time. Qualifications: Experience with independent, exiled or diaspora media, or media operating under restricted conditions. Experience with multilingual or non-Latin-script channels. Knowledge of Afghanistan or the wider region; Pashto or Dari language ability. Job Location: Remote, with reliable overlap with Canada Eastern Time
