Ability to independently collaborate across functions, including PM, design, marketing, and other engineering teams. Experience with the full development lifecycle, from concept to launch, including go-to-market strategies. A passion for mentoring and elevating the technical skills of your peers. While not required, it's an added plus if you also have: Experience working with complex data models and applications that require dynamic, user-facing content delivery at scale. Experience leading development on large-scale web applications or native applications.
