• Exposure to real-time or large-scale data pipelines (e.g., Druid, Kafka).
• Backend experience in ; frontend in React/TypeScript.
• Built creator- or developer-facing products.

• Full-stack-comfortable: you can move between backend services and a web frontend (TypeScript/React), and you’re not afraid to learn the half you know less well.
• A finisher: you take features from spec through launch with guidance from senior teammates, and you care that they keep working — testing, monitoring, and follow-through.
• Pragmatic & collaborative: you communicate clearly, ask good questions, and are low-ego about code and feedback.
• Curious: you stay current and like understanding why a system behaves the way it does.
