- Hands-on experience running account-based marketing programs in partnership with sales.
- A player-coach mindset: you can set strategy, hire and manage a team, and stay close to execution to drive critical initiatives.
- AI fluency: you are a power user of AI tools for research, content creation, and automation, and have built workflows using tools such as Zapier, n8n, or Clay. You can use AI-assisted coding tools to create landing pages, internal tools, and experiments.
