• Ideally 2+ relevant internships and/or professional experience in roles focusing on AI, automation, data, product ops, or process excellence – ideally in a startup, tech company, or management consultancy.

• High intrinsic motivation and strong entrepreneurial thinking with the ability to proactively drive own projects, learn quickly, take responsibility for diverse tasks, and handle ambiguity.
• Strong analytical and conceptual skills combined with a good sense for operational reality – think in systems, not just ideas.
