• Clear communicator — you can explain your thinking to technical and non-technical audiences
• Client presence — professional, curious, and comfortable in collaborative environments
• Structured problem-solver — you break big problems into smaller ones and follow through
• Learning agility — you pick up new tools and concepts quickly andaren'tafraid to experiment
