• A solid foundation in PHP (even basic is fine—you’ll grow here)
• Some exposure to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• A learning mindset—we care more about curiosity than experience
• Willingness to try, fail, ask, and try again

• Mentorship from passionate devs
• Flexible hours, casual vibes, and startup energy
