You get a thrill from the journey of building and shipping products, and you have a desire and ability to connect with our external or internal customers to fully understand their needs.
  • Learner. You have an appetite to learn new things or new technologies all while exhibiting humbleness when the time comes to ask for help.
  • Team Player. You enjoy working with diverse people and driving the team toward a common goal. You have the ability to put the team before yourself and establish long-lasting relationships.
