India is one of Duolingo's most important growth markets. We've operated there for a while, but believe it has much more potential than we've realized so far. We're looking for a seasoned leader to own Duolingo's trajectory in India and build our business in the market. In addition to being a strategic, resourceful, high-influence generalist, we want someone with excellent product sense, built through leading or partnering closely with product teams at global consumer tech companies.
