repeatable workflows, templates, automated recommendations, and UI patterns.

Communicates priorities clearly and aligns them with company-level goals.
5. Team leadership
Provides clear product direction to engineering and design.

Strong argumentation skills — able to overcome resistance across people and processes.
High standards for analytics UX and methodology.
Russian at professional or native level.
Nice to Have

Remote-first — no mandatory office attendance.
Preferred: ability to travel for onboarding (~2 weeks; travel co-funded).
