• Make thoughtful engineering decisions. Work within our existing architecture and modules, write maintainable code, and understand and communicate the trade-offs behind your approach.

• Use AI thoughtfully. Leverage AI-assisted development tools where they add value, while applying appropriate scrutiny, testing, and verification based on the r...
