  • A love for technology, and an insatiable curiosity for new tools to solve real problems, always seeking to innovate and improve.
  • Previous experience on a platform team and a passion for scaling systems for a growing organization and user base, with a deep understanding of mobile infrastructure.
  • A high bar for engineering excellence and a commitment to delivering high-quality, performant, and maintainable code.
