Proven experience managing engineering teams, ideally in a hands-on, individual-contributor-adjacent capacity
Strong TypeScript and Node.js
Experience with serverless infrastructure-as-code frameworks (SST and Pulumi) and AWS Lambda
Familiarity with React, sufficient to manage frontend/backend integration effectively
Comfort owning architecture decisions and translating product requirements into technical execution
Experience managing a team of approximately 3 engineers
