The successful candidate will be responsible for strategic vision, organizational leadership, and fundraising, and must be committed to the values of open science, integrity, and humility. Key responsibilities for the Executive Director include articulating a clear vision for the organization's mission, translating that vision into actionable strategies, and regularly evaluating the impact of the work.
