  • Question the brief when the brief doesn't match reality
  • Communicate progress, blockers, and results to stakeholders and leadership
  • Find the gloriously-unglamorous workaround when the official path is blocked

  • Carry general knowledge that doesn't live in any wiki yet
  • Keep a steady hand on ServiceNow accounts when volume spikes
  • What You'll Bring
  • Comfort with full-time arrangements and the rhythms of a performance-driven workplace
  • The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet

  • Comfort with the full-time cadence of a Chicago-based operation
  • Resilience measured across 1 years of general cycles

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
