  • Strong understanding of software development fundamentals, including source control, development environments, debugging, testing, and modern engineering workflows, with the ability to read and troubleshoot code across different languages, frameworks, and technology stacks.

  • Proven ability to identify, diagnose, and resolve complex technical issues in customer environments.

  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to turn product usage, customer feedback, and technical observations into actionable insights.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts, build trusted customer relationships, and collaborate across engineering, product, sales, and customer success teams.

  • High learning velocity, strong ownership, and a proactive approach to solving problems in a fast-moving startup environment.

What Success Looks Like
