About the Role:

- Ways of Working: Fast, iterative, and comfortable turning feedback into stronger work.
- Collaboration: Excellent communicator and partner in cross-functional, remote-first environments.
- Mindset: Self-directed, thrives in ambiguity, and eager to adopt new tools and approaches to push creative standards higher
