- Solid frontend experience (React or similar), comfortable contributing when needed
- Strong understanding of system design, APIs, and data modelling
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and modern deployment practices
- Experience leading technical decisions in a small team environment
- Comfortable working in greenfield environments with ambiguity
- Solid written communication (remote team)
Nice to have
