- Solid understanding of functional programming principles including pure functions, single-responsibility, and immutability etc.
- A strong passion for developer experience, including improving build times, CI/CD pipelines (e.g., CircleCI, Fastlane), and automated testing.
- Deep familiarity with mobile observability, crash reporting, and stability management (e.g., Datadog, Sentry, Bugsnag).
- A history of mentoring senior engineers, influencing and driving technical roadmaps, and making high-stakes architectural decisions. You can clearly communicate complex technical ideas to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
