About the role

Qualifications

  • High agency: you proactively find problems and solve them (show us what you’ve built or led from 0→1)
  • Excited by fast-paced, startup environments and ambiguous problem spaces
  • Strong curiosity and adoption of modern tooling, including AI-assisted development workflows
  • Bonus: Experience in developer tools, integrations, customer engineering, or technical consulting
