Experiment with features and workflows that improve customer retention and engagement.

Play a key role in setting the pace, velocity, and culture of a growing engineering team.

Comfort making tradeoffs between shipping fast, experimenting, and building long-term platforms.

Exposure to AI/ML, LLMs, or interest in learning.

Familiarity with e-commerce, subscription, or payments systems.

Experience deploying to cloud platforms and working comfortably in a terminal.

A strong sense of ownership, accountability, and product mindset.

Bonus: entrepreneurial drive, startup experience, or attempts at building something of your own.
