Demonstrated success launching and scaling customer-facing products, preferably within an emerging or rapidly evolving technology ecosystem.

Strong understanding of messaging channels and their economics, with SMS/MMS experience required and RCS, WhatsApp, or other rich messaging experience strongly preferred.

Proven experience with pricing, packaging, monetization, usage-based models, or other commercial product strategies.

Experience managing external technology ecosystems involving carriers, aggregators, platform providers, or other third parties whose capabilities and roadmaps influence product decisions.

Experience expanding products into new countries or regions, including market readiness assessments and phased international launches.
