You've managed technical programs and are comfortable getting into the details of a technical product. You've helped technical stakeholders understand project timelines, trade-offs, and confidently navigate the complexity of partnership programs in a fast-evolving space. You've started something before: a process, a team initiative, a side project; anything that shows you're a builder at heart. You're naturally curious and intrinsically motivated. You like figuring things out, and you like helping others do the same. You learn fast and move fast. You take feedback well, act on it quickly, and want to be part of building something from the ground up. We are a high confidence, low ego team. You have strong communication skills: clear writing, calm presence on calls, and an ability to explain complex things simply. You have experience managing projects with multiple stakeholders and technical dependencies.
