- Support customer integration efforts and address technical challenges.
- Collaborate with product and frontend teams to improve developer experience.

- Understanding of authentication protocols (OAuth2, OpenID Connect).
- Experience with browser automation tools (Playwright, Puppeteer) is a plus.
- Knowledge of networking protocols (HTTP, TCP, TLS) is a plus.
Culture and Mindset
- Builder mentality with examples of shipped products or significant features.
- Self-motivated problem-solver who can work with incomplete information.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally.
- Strong desire to learn and adapt in a fast-paced environment.
- Commitment to code quality and engineering best practices.
Compensation & Benefits
