• Able to partner with technical stakeholders in methodically breaking down engineering challenges to deliver against abstract goals
• Able to participate in technical design discussions and summarize trade-offs, outcomes, and next steps

• Capable of deep user empathy and adept at balancing product goals and engineering constraints to deliver impactful experiences
• Hyper-organized and capable of coordinating across multiple independent work streams and organizations
• A role model for effective execution practices, driven by an attuned sense of priority and urgency
• Able to leverage their experience in program delivery to influence improvements to our tools, operations, architecture

• Familiar with MongoDB or a comparable technology

Nice to have!

• Exposed to generative AI and Machine Learning
• Interested in business automation work such as scripting in Python, Google Apps Script and Slack
• Familiar with tools and methodologies for code analysis, refactoring, and automated testing
