Role Overview

  • Project Management: Adept at prioritizing and managing a high volume of concurrent clients across different stages of onboarding, implementation, and renewal.
  • Customer-Centric Mindset: Creative problem-solving skills; proven record of negotiating competing (and conflicting) stakeholder perspectives; ability to balance customer requests with product priorities and business needs.
  • Quantitative Skills: Experience gathering and cleaning data, analyzing large datasets, and presenting results/insights to a non-technically savvy audience.
  • Commercial Comfort: Comfort with engaging in sales and marketing functions: leading product demos, boothing at events, managing account renewals, discussing expansion opportunities with existing clients, and so forth.
  • Communication: Excellent communicator, including written and oral.
  • Startup Alignment: Entrepreneurial spirit and drive, extraordinary comfort with ambiguity, enjoyment wearing many hats.
  • Mindset: Among the best at what you do with a growth mindset and desire to constantly improve.
  • Values: Passion for education, equity, and social impact.
  • Eligibility: Legal ability to work in the US and willingness to work continental US hours.
