4. Transformational Leadership
   • You’ll rally your teams and senior stakeholders to your product vision and proactively leverage relationships throughout the ecosystem to align to your vision and influence prioritization across partner teams.

We want you if you are:

• Tech confident. You’re not scared off by tech lingo, are happy to get into the weeds of design, and are able to see what would make life better for tech and data folks.
• Intellectually Curious. You ask why, you explore and you're not afraid to blurt out your crazy idea. Comfortable with ambiguity, a hunger to learn and a seeker of new challenges.
• Communicator & Influencer. You can communicate complex ideas clearly regardless of your audience. Your team knows their priorities and why they’re doing what they’re doing. You can always rally associates to work with you.
• Do-er. You’re biased toward action, you try things and sometimes you fail. You can get around roadblocks and stay focused on your goals. You’re well organized, able to multitask and able to prioritize your work.
• Passionate & Customer Focus. You care about growing others and bringing them together around what’s possible. You get a thrill from the journey of building and shipping products, and you have a desire and ability to connect with our external or internal customers to fully understand their needs.
• Learner. You have an appetite to learn new things or new technologies all while exhibiting humbleness when the time comes to ask for help.
• Team Player. You enjoy working with diverse people and driving the team toward a common goal. You have the ability to put the team before yourself and establish long-lasting relationships.
