• You are comfortable giving critical feedback to peers (respectfully and productively) and also don't take feedback given personally.
• You're an excellent communicator, fluent in both verbal and written English, who makes sure nothing slips through the cracks. We believe communication is critical and there is no such thing as over-communicating.
• You’re a self-starter who loves taking initiative and seeing things through from conception to completion.
• You're happy working on tasks of all sizes.
