  • Cost & performance: You tune storage/compute and keep a sharp eye on unit economics.

  • Opinionated: Deep level of understanding of the technological landscape, making both high level system and granular code design decisions based on understanding rather than preference - diving deep on unknown patterns in order to build the best product.
