  • Strong attention to detail, ownership mentality, and willingness to dive into day-to-day operations to execute
  • Excellent proficiency in financial modeling and Excel
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth, and often ambiguous environment while balancing strategic thinking with operational rigor
