Full-stack development skills, including Python, TypeScript, React, Node.js, SQL, and experience with AI/ML, LLMs, document intelligence, or cloud infrastructure.
Experience building products or systems from the ground up, ideally in an early-stage startup or founding engineering environment.
Ability to work directly with customers, communicate clearly, and translate complex operational needs into robust software.
A strong academic background and solid engineering fundamentals.
