You should apply if...
You are highly reliable with a GSD mindset despite external circumstances. You say what you mean and do what you say. You are consistent and take ownership in situations, large or small.
You are hyper-organized.
You are Proactive, see potential problems before they happen, and aren't afraid to speak up/challenge the status quo.
You are an over-communicator.
You thrive in a remote work environment. Fully remote work is not for everyone; it requires the ability to quickly pick up online tools, get familiar with our tech stack (G-Drive, Slack, Notion, and a variety of modern reporting tools), and the ability to communicate (and often over-communicate) well in writing.
You love learning new things. Whether you learn best through reading, listening, doing, or exploring, you're perpetually curious about the world and work around you and always trying to level up your personal and professional life through self-directed learning
