Who you are
Learn-it-all, not know-it-all: you have an innate curiosity for all things intellectual, and it’s something you can’t turn off. You obsess over finer details others miss.
High intensity: you thrive in a high-stakes environment, and are driven by an innate obsession, not by others.
Fast learner: you gravitate toward learning new things, and often find yourself learning more quickly than everyone around you.
Driven by pain and discomfort: you enjoy leaving your comfort zone and challenging yourself
Creative: track record of solving hard problems with solutions worthy of academic papers
Educator: you take pride in your ability to communicate complex topics clearly and have excellent speaking and writing skills.
Zero ego: you don’t just take feedback, but truly see it as a gift. You don’t wait until feedback is given, but solicit it with every opportunity.
Founder mentality: you roll up your sleeves to help solve the most pressing problem on a given day, even if it has nothing to do with this job post.
