Qualifications

  • Experience: 3-6 years in a software engineering role, ideally frontend-focused.
  • Programming Languages: Demonstrated fluency in JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • System Architecture: Experience in architecting production-ready systems and familiarity with debugging and profiling tools.
