Objective

I want to join an awesome new project and take it as far as it can go.

My priorities in looking for a job:
  1. #1. I want to love the product we create -- it should do good for the world.
  2. #2. I want to see the direct impact my work makes on the product.
  3. #3. I want to participate in deciding how we can achieve our shared vision of the product.
  4. #4. I want to work in a cross-disciplinary team where everyone does full stack.
