  • Familiarity with the development lifecycle: from the initial git commit to deployment on production to iterative improvements.
  • Excellent communication skills with your fellow engineers, product management, and non-technical colleagues.
  • The ability to solve complex problems, and the wisdom to know when simple solutions may be best.
  • The desire to keep learning, because it’s useful and because it’s fun.
