• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to create clear documentation, runbooks, and technical decision-making artifacts
• AI fluency is a core part of how we work and grow. It’s not about being an expert—it’s about using these tools thoughtfully and effectively to improve your work and support others
• We look for four key behaviors in candidates:
• Ownership: You use AI responsibly by protecting data, applying sound judgment, and taking accountability for the quality and accuracy of your work
