Analytical expertise: highly proficient in Excel, PowerPoint, and data visualization tools; ability to write SQL queries and build BI dashboards is a plus.

Deep interest in prediction markets, betting exchanges, or financial technology, with substantive knowledge of industry trends and mechanics.

Demonstrated cross‑functional leadership and project management skills; thrives in ambiguous, high‑velocity environments.
