• Strong cross-stakeholder coordination across engineering, product, and go-to-market teams
• Proficient in directing agencies and external contributors, with a clear bar for the quality of work you accept
• Experience with (or genuine curiosity about) GEO and how technical content earns citations from AI assistants
