- Show adept ability to multi-task and work in a fast-paced, engaged, and excited environment.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design solutions and workflows.
- Provide recommendations and solutions to issues and problems. Adequately analyze and assess risks and mitigate downsides. Find ways to say yes using a risk-based mindset.
- Be comfortable reading technical documents.
You may be a fit for this role if you have:
