• Deep foundational experience of modern full stack development technologies like Javascript/Typescript, React, Node.js, GraphQL, Go, and Python.
• Able to make effective trade-offs in regards to both engineering and product requirements, while balancing short term and long term needs.
• Strong analytical and data interpretation skills, with experience in metrics-driven decision making and A/B testing.
• Experience with distributed systems and how to scale them is nice to have.
• Prior demonstrated experience contributing to systems, platforms and products owned by multiple engineering teams is a bonus.
• Demonstrated design, UX and product sensibilities and an affinity for wearing the customer’s shoes.
