* Leading teams and managing client interactions, depending on your level of experience.

We’re seeking experienced engineers with hands-on, full-stack expertise. The ideal candidate will have:
* Proficiency in languages such as Java or Python, paired with JavaScript (preferably React).
* Experience working with AWS or other cloud technologies.
