You are an experienced engineer who can independently deliver complex features and systems.  

You have contributed to the design and implementation of production software and understand the tradeoffs behind engineering decisions.  

You enjoy solving challenging technical problems and collaborating with other engineers to build better systems.  

You are pragmatic, detail-oriented, and focused on delivering working software that meets user needs.  

You can write software without the assistance of AI but are open to using it to enhance your toolset.
