Technical Acumen: Comfort with technology is required. The ability to write or edit basic HTML/CSS and do basic data analysis in SQL and Excel is helpful.

Programming ability is a plus, but what matters most is a willingness and ability to learn.
Relationship management skills: The team is constantly working with partners and students, often in stressful situations under tight deadlines and so a customer service orientation is essential.
