About You

You have 7+ years of experience. You've dedicated at least 4 of those years to crafting and refining web-based software products. Your primary domain is the frontend, where your expertise is most evident. Required expertise in TypeScript, React, NodeJS.

Required Technical Skills/Experience:

1. Strong expertise in using Next.js and React.js for building web applications and server-rendered pages.
2. Experience with tRPC for building strongly-typed, type-safe APIs
3. Proficiency in working with Prisma ORM for database interactions, particularly when paired with PostgreSQL.
4. Experience with deploying applications to Vercel.
5. Using tools like Datadog for monitoring and performance optimization, and to identify and address performance bottlenecks.

Nice-to-Have Technical Skills/Experience: Experience with Tailwind or styled-components.

You live by the "always ship new code" mantra. You take immense pleasure in releasing code frequently, knowing that every deployment brings with it enhancements, new features, or solutions that directly impact users. This drive to constantly ship isn't just about quantity for you; it's rooted in your belief that iterative improvement, driven by real-world feedback, is the key to creating truly outstanding software.

In the ever-changing landscape of software development, you recognize that while processes are essential, they should never overshadow the end goal: delivering exceptional value. Your modus operandi involves light yet effective process and technical planning. You are adept at navigating through challenges with agility, ensuring that the emphasis remains on outcomes rather than getting entangled in procedures.

You care about the 'why' more than the 'what'. Your approach to engineering isn't just about ticking boxes or following directives. You deeply value clarity and purpose in your work. If priorities seem nebulous or not optimized, you're confident and proactive in seeking clarity, ensuring that the team's efforts align with the broader vision. Misalignments don't escape your keen eye, and you're quick to flag them, ensuring that the team remains on a coherent and impactful trajectory.

You're intentional and articulate. Every design choice you make, every line of code you write, stems from a plac
