    • You have experience developing public policy strategies related to the technology sector and can translate complex policy developments into clear business implications.
    • You have experience engaging senior government officials, private-sector leaders, and public policy professionals.
    • You can develop and execute effective advocacy strategies while balancing multiple stakeholders and priorities.
    • You communicate clearly in writing and conversation and can adapt your approach for policymakers, business leaders, and cross-functional partners.
    • You build collaborative relationships across functions and levels, approach problems with sound judgment and integrity, and are comfortable operating in a changing policy environment.
    • You are able to travel throughout the United States as needed, including occasionally on short notice.
