• Help the team ship faster through strong execution, ownership, and product-minded engineering

• 2+ years of experience in software engineering, product engineering, full-stack engineering, or another highly product-oriented technical role

• Strong product sense and clear interest in building user-facing features

• Highly AI-native, with strong familiarity with modern AI coding tools and a habit of actively exploring new tools and workflows

• Strong ownership mindset and ability to drive work end-to-end

• Experience building side projects, experimenting with new ideas, or shipping independently outside of core job responsibilities

• Able to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment

• Experience building mobile-first consumer products

• Experience with Next.js and Python

• Experience at an early-stage startup

• Experience at a high-growth or top VC-backed startup
