  • Active, hands-on use of AI coding tools - with real shipped production work to show for it.
  • Strong communication skills; able to clearly articulate technical problems and tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Nice to have: experience building web scrapers or RPA solutions; AWS or GCP infrastructure experience; production LLM application development; prior work in US healthcare or with provider/payer systems.
