- Experience collaborating with distributed or offshore engineering teams across time zones
- Comfort working hands-on with data: SQL proficiency, familiarity with analytics tools, ability to build a data-driven narrative without hand-holding
- Strong customer engagement skills — you've run discovery calls, written user stories, and can translate qualitative feedback into crisp requirements
- Demonstrated use of AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) to accelerate PM workflows — synthesizing research, drafting PRDs, generating insights at speed
