- Proven expertise in React, Python, and Node.js.
- Comfort working within UNIX or Linux environments.
- A generalist mindset with the ability to navigate both frontend and backend challenges to solve complex problems.
- Experience working in fast-paced environments where you take pride in seeing projects through to successful completion.
What we offer

- Access to stock options to ensure you share in our company's growth.
