• Experience working in an agile development environment.
• Ability to contribute to a high-performing agile team, and to product innovation.
• Passion for learning and sharing knowledge with others.

Nice to Have Qualifications:

Educational Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, or a related field.

Experience Level:

• Senior Frontend Engineer: 5+ years of relevant experience.
