• A sharp eye for detail and a passion for language terminology 
• Writing samples that demonstrate great grammar, style, and empathy for users
• Familiarity with other design disciplines (graphic design, UX design, product design) 

How you’ll work:  Our Core Leadership Behaviors are the observable and measurable leadership actions and skills that contribute to our effectiveness and success in our roles at Mailchimp. They determine how we do our jobs and how we meet our goals, enabling us to bring out the best in each other and execute on our strategic plans to deliver for our customers.
