  • A strong focus on system design, data modeling, and long-term maintainability
  • Regular use of AI tools as part of the engineering workflow, while maintaining full ownership of system correctness
  • Clear communication and a collaborative mindset when working with engineering, product, and customer teams
  • Curiosity and enjoyment in tackling complex problems without predefined playbooks
