What We're looking for 

• 8+ years of experience building and maintaining high-scale production systems. 
• Mastery of Fundamentals: Expert-level understanding of object-oriented design, functional programming, and system architecture (Microservices, Event-driven, etc.). 
• Polyglot Mindset: High proficiency in Ruby on Rails and React/Angular, with the proven ability to architect solutions across multiple tech stacks (Python, Go, etc.) as needed. 
• Influence without Authority: Demonstrated ability to lead through persuasion and technical excellence rather than just hierarchy. 
• Advanced AI Collaboration: Deep experience integrating AI into a professional workflow to explore architecture, automate toil, and peer-review logic. 
• Proven Ownership: A track record of taking a project from a nebulous idea to a successful, maintained production system. 
• Communication: Exceptional ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and executive leadership. 
• Clear thinking and strong problem-solving ability, with the capacity to break down complex problems into simple, well-structured solutions.
• A strong sense of ownership — you take responsibility for outcomes, care deeply about quality, and are not comfortable shipping work that does not meet your standards
