  • Experience with cloud services (e.g., AWS, GCP) and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).

• Analytical Skills: Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to analyze complex data sets, apply advanced data science techniques, and derive actionable insights. Proficient in building predictive models, performing statistical analysis, and utilizing machine learning algorithms to identify trends, patterns, and opportunities for optimization.

• Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

What we're like:

- Scrappy. We had a product goal and put out the MVP, collecting our first users with steady growth via paid channels in four months. We don't cut corners when we know we'll need them but we don't build things without that need. We don't like inefficiency but we dislike operationalizing one-off tasks even more.

- Risk-oriented. Everything has risk, but a mature team knows how to make these tradeoffs. That's why we built the MVP fast--because time is your most valuable asset and is practically fungible with money in the startup world.

- Data-obsessed. We all look at data and pull it, and we believe that understanding the mechanics can yield valuable insights. Complex systems require elegant, not just simple solutions. You absolutely need to be interested in data if you want to leverage your knowledge of systems.

- Lucky. That's how we look at this journey so far. From our timing of fundraising, to the circumstances in which we came together, to the initial product traction we're getting, there's no other word to describe it. We are grateful you are reading this, and we know that if you're meant to be with us on this journey, then we will see you soon.
