6+ years industry experience
Prior real-word experience and demonstrable knowledge in any of Java, Kotlin, Scala, Python, Go, Rust, C/C++/C#
Ability to toggle between executing on company-defined priorities and self-defined goals
Great at collaborating and influencing technical direction on aspects not directly within your control
Able to communicate well with a wide variety of cross functional partners such as Legal, Customer Support, Experience Design, etc.
