• Strong interest in improving productivity and happiness of developers
• Experience measuring and improving developer productivity metrics (build times, cycle times)
• Experience with multi-language development environments and dependency management
• Ability to manage team dynamics, set goals, provide feedback, and foster a positive and productive work environment
• Strong communication and collaboration skills across teams and functions
