• Exceptional attention to detail and commitment to quality.
• Comfortable handling escalations and situations where the answer is not immediately clear.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong judgment and willingness to raise concerns when something appears incorrect or creates risk.

Compensation

• $60,000-65,000 annual salary based on experience and location
