8+ years experience working as a full-stack engineer on complex web applications with significant scale (100k+ rpm, 100GB+ databases).
Strong proficiency in Ruby on Rails, MySQL/Postgresql, ReactJS, TypeScript, CSS/SCCS, TailwindCSS.
Familiarity with both frontend and backend is necessary, but a high degree of proficiency in both is not a requirement. Or put another way, you should be able to individually build most small to medium features end-to-end across the stack, but you can be much better at backend than at frontend.
A desire to work in an environment which values speed of iteration and individual autonomy, while also embracing personal accountability and the ability to collaborate effectively as part of a dynamic team.
Great communication skills both in writing and verbal/oral (English).
You should be able to lead a complex project end to end with judgment and an attention to detail when it comes to architectural, product, design, and process decisions. Your judgment should inspire a high level of trust within the team.
Experience working on a fully distributed remote team.
Comfortable in a fast-paced environment with a certain level of ambiguity, especially when learning and picking up new technologies when projects require it.

Build critical features and improvements for our web app, with a product-first mindset.
Work closely with Circle's leaders throughout the feature design process.
