• You are well organized, able to manage time effectively, and comfortable working through sometimes incomplete designs and product specs
• You're enthusiastic about defining and cultivating a product-oriented engineering culture that instills a spirit of continuous improvement in all aspects of building products
• You are humble and recognize no one or system is perfect and you see mistakes being made as an opportunity for improvement
• You are not easily flustered if someone takes a different approach to solving the same problem
• Bonus points if you have worked in one or more early-stage startups!

Responsibilities

• Participate in hands-on software development, where you can apply your skills, knowledge and previous experiences
• Design and implement technical solutions
• Build and refine engineering team processes and best practices based on project experiences
