• Excellent communication skills, written and verbal, including explaining technical ideas to non-specialists
• A proactive, team-oriented attitude, with the ability to work independently when needed
• Programming experience is desirable, but curiosity and willingness to learn matter more

• Interest in financial services or defence is a plus
