• Communicative: you demonstrate excellent communication and collaboration skills across teams and stakeholders

• Data driven: you have exposure collaborating with business and data science stakeholders to ensure that you stay focused on business objectives and to develop metrics that quantify the impact of your work

• Bachelor's or Master’s degree in design, psychology, computer science, or a related field
