  • A builder mindset with daily AI usage: you rely on AI tools every day to simplify routine work, accelerate development, and deliver results faster (while keeping high engineering standards).
  • Ability to execute end-to-end fast: architecture implementation code reviews release monitoring iteration.
  • Solid decision-making, high ownership, ability to untangle complex integrations, and a systematic approach to improving product quality.
