- Hire great engineers, develop them, and give direct, timely feedback.

- A track record of hiring, developing, and retaining strong engineers and building a high-performing, inclusive team
- Strong technical depth to engage credibly on architecture, reliability, and tradeoffs in complex distributed systems
- Strong product judgment and the ability to translate user and market needs into engineering priorities
