  • Technical Depth: Expert in SQL and proficient in Python or R for statistical modeling, forecasting, and machine learning.
  • Domain Knowledge: Strong understanding of sales analytics, revenue operations, and product-led growth (PLG) motions.
  • Analytical Rigor: Skilled in experimentation design, causal inference, and building predictive models that influence GTM strategy.
  • Communication: Exceptional ability to tell a clear story with data and influence senior stakeholders across technical and business teams.
