Define and communicate a comprehensive vision for improving our fully connected homebuilding platform, fostering alignment across cross-functional teams
Make hard, high-stakes trade-offs between features, choosing those that are most likely to ensure that both business goals and user needs are met

Your strong quantitative skills allow you to ask and answer questions about the business, understand the impact of an initiative/product, and report on results

Technical depth that allows you to communicate with, understand, and earn the respect of world-class engineers
Business savvy enough with the ability to break down complex initiatives to interface with all levels and disciplines within the organization
Proven ability to lead in ambiguous environments, aligning across functions, teams, and orgs to deliver on time in a highly collaborative environment
Willing to travel once a month for in-person working sessions
Nice to haves:
