• Proven experience working with AWS infrastructure and familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform preferred).
• Strong engineering fundamentals, including system design, clean code practices, and performance optimization.
• Product-minded approach with the ability to make thoughtful UX and technical trade-offs.
• Comfortable working independently in a remote-first, high-ownership startup environment.

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage.
• Retirement savings plan options (e.g., 401K where applicable).
• Fully remote-first work environment with flexibility and autonomy.
