An Engineering PhD can be substituted for up to 5 years' experience based on research engineering work on directly related projects approved by executive leadership.

Problem Framing (Critical): Higher-order evaluation of how we think about what work we do, what we prioritize, and how we solution needs to be of utmost priority.

Critical Thinking and Creativity: Our work requires an ability to think abstractly, pursue unknown unknowns, and the motivation to persevere even in failure. What we are solving for is unprecedented and challenging – we require out-of-the-box thinkers to provide expert technical consultation to other engineers and management.
Communication Skills: Exceptional communication skills are mandatory – this role succeeds by collaboration with stakeholders, team members, data owners, IT, and leadership – this role is for the most part comprised of soft skills efforts informed by hard technical skills.
Strong technical and organizational leadership skills.
Recognized expert by other engineers and management.
The candidate should demonstrate excellent professional ethics.
