• The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later
• A refreshingly-candid attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
• An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes
• Experience translating Work Ethic complexity for a non-technical audience
• Around 6+ years of hands-on experience in a general role
