  • Experience (or interest) in working with AI tools like ChatGPT, Notion AI, or automation platforms to optimize workflows
  • Systems-builder mindset—you’re not just filling roles, you’re building a repeatable machine

  • C2-level English proficiency (written and spoken); Spanish or Portuguese fluency preferred

Skills:

  • Strong sourcing chops and high-volume outbound messaging experience
