I checked out the site and leadership out of curiosity. Mostly I'm thinking gritty => tenacious.

At the stage Flexport is at I’d really expect them to have raised above needing grit.
My enduring impression of Flexport is of a job ad posted here years ago which made it clear they were credentialist elitists with no interest in hiring people who hadn’t graduated from the right schools.
When I worked there me and at least 2 other engineers I knew didn't have college degrees and joined at entry level. If a job listing says it requires certain credentials, I've mostly gotten by by just ignoring that and applying anyway.
