Proficiency in leveraging AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot) to accelerate delivery velocity, automate boilerplate, and enhance code quality.

Demonstrated ability to design and implement complex, distributed systems that are scalable, maintainable, and secure.

Proven experience leading high‑priority technical projects from conception to delivery, including the ability to navigate trade‑offs and align stakeholders.

A passion for fostering a high‑performing engineering culture through code reviews, technical documentation, and mentoring junior engineers.
