6+ years of professional software development, most of it full-stack comfortably across TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Node.js, and REST APIs.
Hands-on with microservices, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes, and used to a real Git workflow - PRs, code review, the works.
You've built things people actually use, not just things that pass a demo.
You default to figuring it out - new tools, new domains - over waiting to be handed a spec.
You'll push back on an idea if you think it's wrong, and you're just as happy to be pushed back on.
Genuinely curious about LLMs in production.
You're comfortable saying 'we shouldn't build this' or 'this approach is wrong' to a founder - and backing it up
If you've only worked inside well-defined tickets with someone else deciding scope, this probably isn't the role for you
Degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience that gets the point across.
