* Mentor & Document: Promote engineering excellence through code reviews, technical documentation, and knowledge sharing in multiple ways.

Engineering Mindset & Design
* Design Patterns: A firm grasp of object-oriented programming, distributed systems principles and methodologies like DDD using architecture design patterns like Hexagonal, Event-Driven and Microservices.
* Quality First: A strong track record of using engineering best practices, including Clean Code, TDD/BDD, and deep observability.
* AI-Augmented Development: Proven experience in critically using AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Gemini Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate delivery without compromising code integrity or security.
Technical Stack
* Modern Frontend: Advanced experience with React and TypeScript for building complex, responsive web applications.
* Backend & Tooling: Good understanding of Node.js and experience in using it for developing web services, internal libraries (npm packages), and CLI applications.
* API Design: Solid experience designing and implementing robust REST APIs.
* Data & DevOps: Professional experience with PostgreSQL (performance and scalability) and a "DevOps mindset" regarding CI/CD pipelines.
* Bonus Points: Knowledge of Kotlin/Spring Boot, Python, or Generative AI frameworks (Langchain, RAG pipelines) is a significant plus.
Soft Skills
* Bias for Action: A "can-do" attitude with a focus on product understanding to ensure delivery and continuous improvement.
* Collaborative Spirit: A strong team player who values knowledge sharing and is always willing to help others grow.
* Communication: Clear written and verbal communication skills, essential for a cross-functional platform environment.
Traits:
* Actively help yourself (and others) be successful.
* Continuously learn and challenge the status quo.
* Think globally, act locally.
* Strong bias for action.
* Give and receive open, direct and timely feedback.
