What to check in a posting

Check the languages, systems, ownership level, and work examples the team asks for; a shared title does not mean every engineering role uses the same stack.

How to prepare your application

Show a feature or system you built, the decisions you owned, and a result you can explain. Name tools only where you actually used them.

Prepare to discuss a technical tradeoff, a debugging path, and how you worked with other people to ship or maintain software.
