✅ Requirements

Level 3 autonomy — operates independently without being managed

1+ years using AI to solve complex, unstructured problems

Strong communication — simplifies complex ideas clearly

Background in high-signal dev tools or AI environments

Based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco

⭐ Preferred Background

Strong product thinking — understands systems end-to-end

Able to estimate and execute projects with high confidence
