## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with a focus on developer tooling, platform engineering, or internal-facing/DevX systems

- A natural collaborator who earns trust with engineers quickly, understands real engineering pain points, and co-creates solutions that get adopted rather than shelved
- Strong full-stack TypeScript proficiency, deep familiarity with API design and integration (RESTful services, MCP, and similar), and comfort working across a modern engineering tech stack
- Production experience with AWS, CI/CD using Github Actions or similar tool, and a genuine understanding of AI safety and security, especially around code execution and access to internal systems
- Experience with or strong interest in developer experience fundamentals: reducing friction, measuring engineering productivity, and treating internal tooling like a product with real users
