• →Taking ownership of projects end-to-end, from initial design through post-launch, with support from senior teammates
• →Actively participating in team rituals including planning, code review, on-call, and retrospectives

• You have 3+ years of experience as a Software Engineer
• You have specialized in building consumer-facing products on web and mobile platforms
• You have developed domain expertise in either web or mobile front-end (or both)
• You are eager to learn new languages and frameworks, and are comfortable working across the full stack when needed
• You have worked in a product team with clear metrics goals and had a measurable positive impact on customers
• You have a strong product sense and take pride in sweating the details of great UX

• You are a Discord user, and understand the core features and flow of Discord communications
