Systems Thinking: A deep understanding of the building blocks of robust, scalable system architectures and integrations.
A Builder’s Mindset: A genuine passion for technology and a desire to build a product that fundamentally revolutionizes a real-world industry. Actual LBM industry experience is a plus.
