4. Work inside unfamiliar repositories and understand existing application architecture.
5. Diagnose failures involving application state, API contracts, authentication, persistence, networking, and deployment.
6. Evaluate and improve code written in multiple programming languages.
7. Review AI-generated solutions for correctness, completeness, performance, security, and maintainability.

Required Qualifications

1. Strong professional experience developing production full-stack applications.
2. Meaningful hands-on experience with both front-end and back-end engineering .
3. Production experience with multiple programming languages.
4. Strong knowledge of browser applications, APIs, application state, databases, and service integration.
5. Experience understanding and contributing to the architecture of complete software systems.
6. Ability to work effectively in unfamiliar codebases.
7. Strong debugging and technical problem-solving skills.

2. Complete an AI interview of approximately 30 minutes.
3. Complete a technical assessment, if required.
4. Complete the hiring manager review.
