• You’re comfortable working in at least one object oriented programming language (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, etc).
• You have hands‑on experience with GenAI, (e.g. Playwright with MCP). Experience with AI‑assisted coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude) is required, knowledge of LangChain or LangGraph, and cloud environments is a plus.
• You love working with people to build things and solve problems together in an egoless way, regardless of their level of experience or your role in the team.
• You’re comfortable with change and always happy to learn something new; as consultants we flex our individual roles and tech stacks as required to get the best outcomes for our clients.
