  • Highly organized; capable of managing competing priorities in a fast-moving environment
  • Understanding of Bitcoin fundamentals and cryptocurrency markets.

Nice To Haves (Preferred Qualifications):
  • Hands-on experience with workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier, Make) or LLM API integration
