You are eager to learn and especially capable of active and empathetic listening, particularly with our partners, who are often subject matter experts in their own right. • Be comfortable with, and excited by, technology : You are eager to supportively guide data analysis and technology products. You’re excited to work with a fast-moving team, helping it bring order and prioritization to complexity, while also respecting—and enjoying—the need to be flexible. • 3+ years of experience in account management, product management, political strategy / lobbying, business development, policy, or similar role.
