  • Familiarity with web development and with modern web stacks including Python, Django, AWS, SQL, REST APIs, React, HTML5, CSS3, and ES6+

  • An affinity for collaborating with technical and non-technical colleagues; values incorporating feedback to make decisions using code reviews, docs, wikis, meetings, and other channels as needed
