- Act as the technical bar raiser for the team
- Partner closely with Product to turn ambiguous requirements into shipped features

- Proven ability to move fast without sacrificing quality

Nice to Have

- Build alongside your team, not above it
- Fast iteration and direct feedback loops
- Competitive compensation and meaningful equity
