Target experiences not rendering to page

My team has a recurring issue where Target experiences intermittently fail to load in an Angular SPA.
For demo purposes, I have an experiment that is set to be delivered to All Visitors, and 100% of users will get the Challenger. The only modification is a line of custom code to log some text to the console. It is a Page Load modification (not view-based).
When I use the Target-provided QA URL to test the experience, everything works great. However, when we activate the test, it doesn't appear in the delivery request response. (Although we do see a different view-based experiment in the prefetch section of the response.)
The Target lifecycle seems to be broken. Monitoring the lifecycle events, we see:
- at-library-loaded
- at-request-start
- artifactDownloadSucceeded
- at-request-succeeded
- at-content-rendering-start
...but we never see:
- at-content-rendering-succeeded
Has anyone run into this?
