- The ability to pull knowledge out of people’s heads and institutionalize them into code and processes
- A sterling reputation among cross-functional partners, as somebody that’s able to achieve alignment and translate asks across multiple functions like Business Intelligence, Engineering, Finance, Product, and Operations
