Have a track record of designing and shipping backend systems in production.
Have experience with relational databases and data modelling.
Bring sound technical judgment and the ability to make and stand by technical decisions.
Have a grounding in computer science fundamentals, through a degree or equivalent experience, including data structures, algorithms, and complexity.
Have professional experience in Elixir, or deep experience in another backend language and a genuine drive to make Elixir your main tool.
Be comfortable with asynchronous, event-driven systems in which multiple services work on the same data in parallel.
Have experience with web development.
Be comfortable using Linux and Docker and interested in other languages and technology stacks.
Have a habit of writing tested, maintainable code and an interest in continuous delivery, TDD, pairing, code review, and retrospectives.
Use AI tools with judgment, evaluating their output rather than accepting it uncritically.

Build and ship product features in Elixir and Phoenix LiveView from idea through production.
Design data models and services behind new features, and plan changes and migrations for safe production releases.
Build services that communicate over APIs and RabbitMQ in an event-driven architecture.
Handle growing volumes of customer data reliably.
Write well-tested, maintainable code using test-driven development.
Use pairing and code reviews to maintain quality across the squad.
Contribute to technical and product discussions and the roadmap.
Use data and observability to assess production behavior and customer value.
Pair with and mentor other engineers.
