You make appropriate trade-offs, re-use where possible, and are judicious about introducing dependencies. You are efficient with resource usage (e.g., system hardware, database, memory/CPU, etc). We are looking for engineers to actively engage in technical discussions, assist in designing and implementing solutions, pair program with our more junior engineers, and deliver constant improvements to our systems.
