- Familiarity with large-scale frontend monorepo architectures and their build and dependency challenges.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to balance platform needs with product-team flexibility and drive organizational alignment.
- Ability to work independently in ambiguous, high-ownership environments and drive work to completion.
