  • Own features and experiments end-to-end, including writing product specs, driving cross-functional execution, making thoughtful product decisions along the way, and sharing insights and results throughout the company.

  • Partner closely with leaders across product, engineering, finance, and operations, as well as external partners and customers.

  • Highly technical and capable of wading into the details, but can also drive from 30,000-foot view.

  • Portfolio product approach for balancing bold, high-upside bets with quick wins.

  • Impeccable follow-through. You say what you’ll do, and do what you say. You hold your team to this standard. You don’t let details slip.
