 * Care for visual craft and how people use software, including an interest in accessible interfaces and the details that make interactions feel right.
 * Hands-on fluency with AI coding tools. You can provide useful context, evaluate and improve generated code, and verify that it works as intended.
 * Ownership and a willingness to learn: you follow work through, communicate when you need help, and use feedback to improve your approach.
 * Curiosity about reusable systems and the tradeoffs involved in serving different product needs with shared components.
