How we'll judge this role together — shared with you on day one, not at review time.
Stand up the evaluation harness and establish the quality baseline.

Every plan unlocked, for you and your immediate family.
The machine and setup you need to do focused work.
Generous leave, and no expectation of being reachable on it.
