A bit about the role and ideal matches:
Looking for generalists who are willing to do any task technically to push the team forward (from long-term product vision to integration work)

Is an extremely hard worker when they are in a strong team environment and working on a vision they care about
Has experience at top start ups or big tech companies companies; or is an ex-founder/founding engineer; or someone who obsesses over side projects (deployed and live, ideally).
