  • Curiosity about the “how” of technology to tell compelling stories about the “why”
  • Relevant work experience in a technical field (e.g. CS, CSE, EE)
  • Proven track record to craft engaging content, including blog posts, presentations, videos, etc.
  • Strong communication skills, with experience making pitches to audiences big and small
  • Comfort working in a very cross-functional role, with a highly distributed team
