• Solid experience with React and Next.js to contribute to our web platform when needed
• Good judgment around architecture, refactoring, technical debt, and maintainability
• Experience using AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, or similar tools
• Comfort with modern deployment workflows and cloud infrastructure, ideally AWS
• Strong debugging, problem-solving, and code-reading skills
• Clear communication and a practical, low-ego working style
