This is a role for a builder as much as a strategist. Youll move fluidly between setting long-term direction and getting your hands dirty in the detail: pressure-testing a methodology change sitting with engineers on a tricky platform problem cutting into the data to understand a quality issue. You operate across a high dynamic range comfortable framing strategy for executives one hour and shaping the specifics of an experiment the next.
