- • Excellent communication skills to convey complex technical risk to product managers, engineers, researchers, executives, and policy stakeholders, turning ambiguity into practical decisions and guidance.
- • Comfort with building new policy frameworks and processes in ambiguous or fast-moving environments, using data, threat intelligence, and operational signals to improve policy effectiveness.
