• Partner directly with product leadership to validate new product ideas and translate them into working software.
• Design, build, and maintain integrations with paid media platforms and other external systems.
• Rapidly prototype approaches to evaluate viability, performance, and security.
• Make sound technical decisions across the stack with a balance of speed, reliability, and scalability.

AI Literacy & Interviewing Guidelines

This organization prioritizes AI literacy. Thoughtful, appropriate use of AI tools is valued; however, interviewers will evaluate your independent problem-solving and communication. Over-reliance on AI-generated responses during interviews (especially when it obscures your own voice) may disqualify a candidate. Be prepared to demonstrate how you approach problems both with and without AI assistance.
