- Strategic Communication: You possess strong written and verbal communication skills used to influence product direction, align distributed teams, and articulate technical trade-offs clearly
- Professional Experience: 8+ years of professional software development experience, with a definitive track record in senior, staff, or lead frontend engineering roles
