• Manage and maintain Notion as the central system for records, workflows, and ongoing projects
• Convert meeting recordings into clear summaries, action items, decisions, deadlines, and ownership assignments

• Regular use of macOS as your primary operating system, with access to a MacBook or iMac
• Daily hands-on experience using Claude or a comparable AI assistant in a professional setting
