• Implement process improvements to reduce workflow inefficiencies 

What You’ll Bring

• A desire to move fast, identify blockers and find solutions independently, and fix problems without being asked 

• Proven track record of being a self-starter and exceptional leadership qualities (i.e., have personally solved difficult problems that have moved the needle on meaningful projects) 

• Strong problem solving ability, attention to detail and organizational skills
