• Drive technical quality: Contribute to design discussions, code reviews, and best-practice adoption for performance, security, and maintainability.

• Startup mindset; comfortable working in a fast-moving environment and wearing multiple hats.
• Bachelor's degree, preferably in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field.
