Personal qualities, soft skills:

We care a lot about clear communication and proactiveness.

In a startup, priorities can change and sometimes we need to live with uncertainty to be able to keep on moving. So we need someone who doesn't mind a fast-paced, dynamic environment and a bit of trial and error.

As this is our lead position, we would like this person to be inspirational.

We want everyone to feel part of the team, so we need everyone to be empathic and care about the others.
