  • Shows alignment with GRIT valuesโ€”particularly teamwork and innovationโ€”and thrives in a dynamic, remote environment focused on customer-centric solutions.
  • Possesses experience with project management tools (e.g., Jira, Asana) and methodologies (Agile/Scrum), with a focus on digital product enhancements.

4

Include examples of how you've embodied GRIT values (e.g., a project where generosity or grit led to success) in past roles.
