• Familiarity with AI tools and agent workflows; experience building or deploying AI‑driven products is a plus.
• 8+ years of professional experience in full‑stack engineering.
• Deep expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, and modern front‑end frameworks like React.
• Experience designing and operating scalable microservice architectures in cloud‑native environments (AWS preferred).
• Strong understanding of GraphQL, event‑driven systems (Kafka/SQS), and distributed databases.
• Proven track record leading high‑impact initiatives from concept through production.
• Expert‑level grasp of software design principles such as SOLID, DI, and domain‑driven design.
• Experience building SaaS platforms, ideally with multi‑tenant architecture.
• Strong communicator and collaborator across product, design, AI, and engineering teams.
• Ability to connect technical decisions to customer impact and long‑term business value.
