  • At least 3 years of experience working in an analytical, portfolio management, or business strategy role
  • You have a demonstrated ability to use data to drive decisions and back up assumptions and recommendations (it's an added bonus if you've done financial/risk modeling in the past)
  • You are a demonstrated self-starter
  • You provide strong strategic aptitude, clear thinking and communicating, and great decision making
  • You obsess about making our end-users happy and have strong opinions about good customer experience
  • You bring a strong attention to detail, with an ability to take a step back and understand the bigger picture
