Your experience:

• 5+ years in a full-stack software development role with a track record of owning and delivering complex features or systems

• Degree in CS/EE

• Deep proficiency with Frontend (TypeScript, JavaScript, React), Backend (Node.js, Express.js, REST APIs), and Infrastructure (Relational databases, Git, AWS) systems and languages

• Ability to learn and adapt to best-in-class tools including but not limited to Claude Code, Claude.ai, Linear, and other rapidly advancing AI tools

• Strong collaboration and communication skills, with a proven ability to lead discussions, drive alignment, and mentor peers
