• Communicate clearly and effectively, and know how to gather, process, and act on feedback
• Can build strong working relationships with stakeholders and keep multiple parties aligned around shared goals
• Have hands-on experience with AI-assisted engineering workflows, including tools like Codex, Claude, and agent-based development approaches
  
• Bring experience with NoSQL databases such as Cassandra, MongoDB, or similar technologies
