Proven Technical Fluency: Hands-on with data (SQL essential), familiar with Python, APIs, and modern data architectures. Technical fluency, not engineering depth. You can read code, work in SQL, build in low/no-code platforms, and hold your own with a technical team--but you're not writing production software.
Executive Presence: Executive presence with superior communication skills. You are a confident facilitator, advisor, and strategic partner at the C-level.
Builder Portfolio: Demonstrated track record of building and deploying low/no-code solutions, driving from prototype to production.
Problem Solving: Relentless problem solver, always synthesizing ambiguity into clear, actionable recommendations. Experience influencing product direction by surfacing client needs and market insights.
Advanced Education: Technical undergraduate or graduate program. An Advanced degree (MBA, technical Master's) is a plus. But demonstrated impact and leadership matter most.
Ability to travel for customer and prospect onsite visits (approx. 25 - 40%)
