• Strong collaboration skills, with a willingness to work across product, engineering, and customer-facing teams to drive shared outcomes
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• A coachable and curious mindset with a genuine interest in public finance, treasury, and fintech
