  • Comfortable working in the terminal.
  • Proficiency within an editor of your choice.
  • Experience with writing automated tests (Jest, Jasmine, Cypress, Playwright or equivalent).
  • Experience working with profiling tools.
  • Knowledge and familiarity with caching strategies and tools.
  • Experience consuming and integrating with third party APIs.
