• Technical background or mindset (engineering, science, or related technical discipline strongly preferred)
• The ideal candidate is an engineer looking to transition into business product development
• Demonstrated ability to take ambiguous opportunities and develop them into clear, decision-ready business assessments with minimal direction
• Excellent written communication skills, particularly in structured analytical documents including opportunity assessments, business cases, MRDs, and executive briefs
• Strong business acumen including comfort with market sizing, value-in-use logic, TCO/ROI fundamentals, competitive positioning, and prioritization trade-offs
• Self-directed and effective in ambiguity with the ability to independently structure problems, proactively gather information from across the organization, and bring well-framed recommendations forward
• Engineering or Technical degree along with Bachelors with business focus or MBA preferred but not required
