  • Hands-on experience building products at fast-growing startups, including taking projects from early prototypes to production at scale.
  • Strong Python and/or TypeScript/Node.js skills, with experience designing APIs, distributed systems, and data models.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL and messaging or streaming systems such as Kafka or RabbitMQ.
  • Experience shipping applied AI or agentic products, and familiarity with coding agents and rapid prototyping.
  • Strong product judgment, comfort with ambiguity, and an ability to work across teams and with operational users.
  • Relevant experience in AI, marketplaces, matching or recommendation systems, staffing, recruiting, or operational platforms is valuable.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals and a record of sustained contributions in engineering roles.
