Prior experience developing software for safety-critical systems
About You:
You find large challenges exciting and enjoy discovering and defining problems as much as solving them
You deliver. You may enjoy thoughtful conversations about problems and perfecting design, but in the end, you know that what matters is delivering reliable solutions. (Our ultimate aim is to help people; the "right" solution doesn't always achieve that)
You are mission-driven and goal-oriented in your approach to solving problems
You feel a sense of urgency to get things done sooner rather than later-because there is so much we, as people, can contribute to the world and accomplish in this life, it's a shame to waste time
You are resourceful, flexible, and adaptable; no task is too big or too small
