Build and maintain clear timelines, budgets, and project plans

Catch issues early, organize inputs, and help projects stay aligned and on track

Obsessively detail-oriented, highly organized, and extremely proactive

Strong problem-solver, especially in complex or scaling environments

Confident exercising creative and strategic judgment, even when you're not the one designing

Comfortable managing multiple project types in parallel

Strong and intuitive communicator across internal teams and external vendors

Process-oriented but human—not corporate

Strong candidates may come from industry, research, academic, or hybrid backgrounds

You don't need to be an engineer, formulator, or designer—but you do need to be confident asking smart questions, learning quickly, and transferring skills across domains

Intellectual agility, sound judgment, and the ability to move fluidly between different kinds of work matter more than domain-specific mastery

A genuine interest in wellness, health, and personal growth is important
