Build APIs in Node.js
Are extremely supportive, especially when teammates are faced with new challenges
Are left to autonomously figure out solutions to their challenges
Think hard about every problem and its solution from user’s perspective
Value clear and frequent communication (we do a lot of reading and writing)
Enjoy being a generalist and are not tied down to a specific framework or surface area of our codebase
Are naturally curious and willing to learn something they don’t have experience in
Feel a great sense of accountability to each other
Have good judgement of when to ship: perfect is the enemy of good
Have a fundamental understanding of Linux/Docker/networking
