Hypothesis Validation & Experimentation: Design and execute rapid, pragmatic validation cycles. Formulate clear hypotheses (Problem → Mechanism → Impact → Metric), choose the right validation method (A/B test, shadow model, phased rollout), and make data-driven go/no-go decisions under uncertainty. Be scrappy and effective with limited data or infrastructure. Structured Problem Solving: Apply critical thinking to decompose complex, ambiguous problems. Cut through noise, prioritize what truly matters, and build simple, effective solutions first. Cross-Functional Execution: Collaborate closely with Engineering, Data Science, and business teams.

Ability to reason about probability, causality, and data limitations to make informed decisions. Mindset & Approach: Entrepreneurial & Hands-on: "Let's build it" attitude. Able to create quick prototypes and test ideas without over-engineering. Comfortable with "building with sticks and glue" to learn fast. Outcome-Oriented: Owns the business result, not just the AI model. Pragmatic and willing to simplify or kill features that don't drive impact.
