• Quality Standard: Set and maintain a high bar for product and code quality, questioning the status quo and identifying gaps in the existing system.
• Agility: Demonstrate a scrappy mindset, contributing to the execution of experiments and ensuring the team meets its targets.
• Mentorship: Leverage your experience to guide and nurture junior team members, fostering their professional development.
• Collaboration: Foster a fun and collaborative team culture. Be approachable and ready to lend a helping hand to teammates when needed.
