At least 5 years of software engineering experience, including experience at an early-stage startup from Seed through Series B.
•
Deep experience with AI coding agents, including practical examples of scaling their use across an engineering team.
•
Strong judgment when evaluating AI-generated output, with the ability to identify incorrect, incomplete, or risky implementations, particularly when handling customer data.
•
Proven experience scaling production systems as customer numbers, workloads, and data volumes increase.
•
Strong software architecture skills and experience making sound technical design decisions.
•
Ability to balance speed and simplicity with the need for reliability, data integrity, and robust architecture.
•
Proficiency in at least one of the following programming languages: Java, Python, Go, or JavaScript/TypeScript.
•
Strong SQL skills.
•
Experience with cloud platforms, containers, and automated deployment pipelines.
•
Clear and collaborative communication skills, particularly in technical writing and explaining complex decisions.
