• Growth mindset: Learns fast and is enthusiastic about learning new technologies
• Time Management: Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
• Passion for Net Zero: You don’t need to be deeply familiar with the EV market and products (we can teach that), but a passion for the transition to net zero is an excellent start
