What do you need to succeed? 

 

• You are hungry forgrowth and learning. You aren't happy with the status quo. You chafe in the face of dysfunction. You want to be better, you want to grow, and you want people around you to grow. You are constantly soaking up new ideas, new principles, new methods, new tech, and your client’s business model. You bring this knowledge to bear in your everyday work. You actively seek out feedback and you internalize it regardless of whether good, bad or anywhere in-between. 

• You are aprofessional. You show up in a way that demonstrates this intellectually, emotionally, and physically. You are organized. Your communication is top notch. You can manage a room. You can think fast, you can solve the tactical need and move the strategy forward. Wherever you are placed, you make a difference. 

• Youthrive in ambiguity. You have the thinking tools required, and the interpersonal skills needed to put just enough structure in place to move things forward, to achieve the outcomes. 

• Youcombine passion with pragmatism. You have emotional intelligence; you can read a room. You balance when to push and when to back off. You are intentional in all your actions. 

• You havecommand presence. You have charisma. You are innately able to influence others for the good of the individual, their team, and the organization. 

• You accept that learning and development happens at a different pace for everyone. You accept that “time-in” is a meaningless measure of progress. You’re comfortable learning from anyone who can teach you, regardless of age or experience level. 

• Beingpart of a teamis core to your DNA, your success is irrelevant if your team isn't successful. Their success must be your prime motivator. 

• Extensive experience as a software developer, and/or technical lead is very desirable.
