- Product-focused delivery: You’ve delivered meaningful initiatives within a cross-functional squad (Engineering, Product, Design, Data), producing measurable customer or commercial outcomes.
- Strong product judgement: You work closely with Product to shape scope, make pragmatic trade-offs, and keep the team focused on impact rather than output.
- Technical credibility: You’re an experienced engineer who can guide architectural decisions, review work, and help unblock the team when needed.
- Systems thinking: You reason clearly about scale, reliability, data flow, and long-term maintainability as the product grows.
