  • Significant experience in backend Python or TypeScript ecosystems.
  • A proven track record of leading the architecture of complex software projects and deploying them successfully into cloud environments like AWS, Azure, or GCP.

  • Expert problem-solver who can debug complex, full-stack issues and maintain high standards for testing using frameworks like Jest or Cypress.
  • Thrive on autonomy and ownership, with the entrepreneurial drive to take a vague problem statement through to a polished, high-impact execution.
  • A compelling collaborator and mentor who can effectively communicate technical strategy to both internal multidisciplinary teams and external high-level stakeholders.
