- Make hard, high-stakes trade-offs between features, choosing those that are most likely to ensure that both business goals and user needs are met
- Identify product gaps and gather product requirements through internal research, market research, customer research, and data analysis

- Your strong quantitative skills allow you to ask and answer questions about the business, understand the impact of an initiative/product, and report on results
- You’re a self-starter who sets ambitious goals and aims to surpass them. A focused, disciplined, and capable individual who effectively self-manages across multiple priorities
- Technical depth that allows you to communicate with, understand, and earn the respect of world-class engineers
- Business savvy enough with the ability to break down complex initiatives to interface with all levels and disciplines within the organization
- Proven ability to lead in ambiguous environments, aligning across functions, teams, and orgs to deliver on time in a highly collaborative environment
- Willing to travel once a month for in-person working sessions
