  • User-focused: You strive to understand the end users’ needs and how the software you’re producing will impact their lives before building.

  • Strong communicator: You can clearly explain your ideas and views on topics from technical decisions to product design.

  • Technically agnostic: You understand the tradeoffs around the programming languages and technologies used and want to choose to use the best tool to accomplish the job given its constraints. You’re willing to learn new technologies as you go.

  • Ownership-focused: You’re excited to be working in an environment where you’ll have a high degree of responsibility for the product and look forward to shaping Belfry as a company.

  • Team-driven: Working to you is a collaborative endeavor; you value growing in your role while helping those around you grow as well.
