• Experience working cross‑functionally with product, sales, marketing, and customer‑facing teams.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with proficiency in tools such as SQL, BI platforms (e.g., Tableau, Looker, Power BI), or similar analytics tools.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to clearly present complex analysis to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Bachelor’s degree in business, economics, analytics, engineering, or a related field; MBA or advanced degree is a plus.

• Familiarity with General Contractor workflows, preconstruction, bidding, and subcontractor sourcing.
