You will build and lead an India-based cross-functional team, as well as the culture and operating cadence that hold it together.

Your success will be measured on Duolingo's core metrics: user growth and monetization. You will work closely with product teams to shape India-specific product and course improvements, and influence and align global, cross-functional teams to support the needs of India.

**Requirements:**

- 15+ years of experience in product, growth, or market leadership roles at global, high-growth technology companies

- A track record across both the US and India, credible with leadership abroad and effective on the ground

- Excellent product sense, particularly for how global products get adapted for markets like India

- Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence without authority, and an understanding of how different stakeholders think

- Experience working effectively with colleagues across different time zones and locations

- A bias toward acting on what you see rather than waiting for someone else to prioritize it

- Analytical and strategic, but also scrappy and willing to roll up your sleeves

- Passion for language education, for building Duolingo's business in India, and appetite for a multi-year bet
