- High EQ, Low Ego: The emotional intelligence to manage diverse stakeholders and the humility to put the company’s success first.
- Master Communicator: You turn complex commercial and legal concepts into compelling narratives. You are equally at home in the weeds of project tracking, dashboards, and quota configuration or zoomed out on high-level strategy.

- Drive Commercial Priorities: Partner with the CBO to define and execute the company’s partnership and supply strategy, leading special projects that bridge departments, from RevOps to Finance, with precision on complex deal structuring and economics.

- Be the Flywheel of Accountability: Serve as the hub between the CBO and his leadership team, keeping strategic decisions cascading cleanly through the organization, closing communication gaps, and holding teams to their commitments as we scale.
- Prep the CBO for High-Stakes Moments: Build sharp, data-backed materials for Board meetings, investor updates, and partner reviews, and run deep-dives into our commercial architecture to deliver recommendations that shape strategy.
- Extend the CBO’s Reach: Act as a trusted proxy in rooms where the CBO is at capacity, advance priorities independently, and own the research and prep that powers ELT meetings.
