  • Past experience executing on multiple growth strategies, such as feature development and funnel optimization, SEO, referral programs, viral features, or app store optimization
  • Ability to distill complex concepts into easily digestible information and drive stakeholder alignment
  • The ability to work independently, self-manage, and both set and meet ambitious goals
  • Bachelor’s degree; a management and/or computer science degree a plus
