  • Proven ability to conduct careful and thoughtful analysis with a bias toward action, translate regulatory criteria into clear requirements for functional and business teams and weigh and articulate the risk and reward of various scenarios.
  • Knowledge of industry standards, activities and trends as well as prior engagements with leading standards and industry organizations and consortium.
  • Ability to concisely communicate (in writing and verbally) complex regulatory and business issues both inside and outside the company.
  • Experience in interacting with customers, suppliers, channel partners and/or other external stakeholders such as analysts, government and non-governmental organizations regarding regulations and compliance.

We tackle whatever challenges come our way. We have each other’s backs, we recognize our accomplishments, and we grow together. We celebrate and support one another – from big and small things in life to big career moments. And giving back is in our DNA (we get 10 days off each year to do just that).
