Experience building production-grade FP systems (Scala is preferred, but Haskell/Clojure/Elm is also good if you are excited to dive into Scala) Solid understanding of functional programming principles and their practical application in production systems. Experience using the Typelevel stack: Scala 2.13+/ Scala 3, along with cats/cats-effect/zio, and related libraries. Experience with our infrastructure stack: AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, GraphQL, and PostgreSQL. Fluency in English, both written and spoken, for effective communication in a distributed team. Comfortable working in small, fast-paced, product-focused teams with shifting priorities. A bias toward action, curiosity to explore unfamiliar tools and patterns, and the ability to work through ambiguity.
