You’ve already experimented with AI in work or personal projects, and you’re excited to dive in and learn fast. You’re hungry to responsibly explore new AI tools and workflows, finding ways to make your work smarter and more efficient.
You question convention and proactively look for ways to improve, whether that’s workflows, architecture, tooling, or team processes. You are intrinsically motivated to drive incremental and step-change improvements that deliver value to the business.
You mentor and support other engineers, offering thoughtful feedback in design and code reviews, helping refine specifications, and investing in the growth of more junior engineers on the team.
You enjoy working on small, autonomous, agile teams, shipping early and often, pairing with product managers, business stakeholders, and other engineers to craft better software.
