* Tech-savviness and ability to learn new software systems quickly and independently
* Thrives under pressure, manages a heavy workload with minimal oversight, and never says “that’s not my job”
* A hunger and excitement to grow rapidly in an earlier-stage insurtech; motivated to roll up your sleeves and hustle
