- Fluency in Excel/Sheets and comfort working with SQL or similar data tools
- Strong communicator: able to tailor messages to execs, operators, and technical teams alike
- Ability to thrive in ambiguity and turn rough ideas into structured plans
- Collaborative by default — you get things done through influence, not hierarchy
