- You're a self-starter who loves taking the initiative and seeing things through from conception to completion.

- You're an excellent communicator, fluent in both verbal and written English, who makes sure nothing slips through the cracks. We believe communication is critical, and there is no such thing as over-communicating.

- You're happy working on tasks of all sizes - from quick bug fixes to large architectural changes.
- You're passionate about creating user-friendly solutions and improving the developer experience, while embodying our Core Value: Laboring for Simplicity.
