• Technical fluency to make sound product decisions for developer-style tools and partner deeply with engineering.
• Demonstrated ability to operate with significant independence and sound judgment in ambiguous or fast-changing environments
• A bias for action - comfortable starting, iterating, and learning rather than waiting for perfect information

• Comfort with risk-taking and a healthy relationship with failure as part of the learning process.
• Be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident
