Handle tasks that require logging into third‑party developer accounts (Apple Developer, Google Maps API), and manage Klaviyo email marketing integration and related campaigns.

• Set up and maintain ancillary services such as Answerbase Q&A widgets, live chat integrations, and other customer‑facing features.
