Growth Mindset: You care about performance and user experience. You understand that small technical improvements in onboarding or loyalty flows can have a massive impact on millions of users.
Reliability & Documentation: You are structured in your approach, enjoy writing clear technical documentation, and focus on building maintainable, high-quality code.
