- Strong product sense, with the ability to decide what to ship and explain the reasoning.
- Comfort building complete product screens independently from UI and UX components.
- Able to work on-site five days a week, or willing to relocate.
Bonus points

- Active use of AI tools and developer tooling in daily work.
- Familiarity with the company's product as a user.
