- Genuine curiosity and comfort working without a precedent or a clear owner for the problem
- Willingness to learn a new language, since you'll be writing and helping shape their workflow language
- Comfortable working async in a remote, distributed team
- Compiler/language tooling experience, having designed a language, durable execution/workflow engine background, actor systems/pub-sub/event sourcing, and real-time/streaming/search-indexing experience (nice to have)
