  • Fluency in a server-side language such as Python, Go, Java, or Rust, as well as TypeScript and customer-facing product development.
  • Experience with data infrastructure, data pipelines, or extraction systems, and strong debugging skills in production environments.
  • Experience using AI-native development tools and workflows, including coding agents and related integrations.
  • Background at a high-growth technology company or as a founder or early engineer at a venture-backed startup.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals, demonstrated through education or equivalent software engineering experience.
