  • Provide thought guidance in systems engineering methods and bring your passion for technology to motivate and inspire on a day to day basis.

  • Take calculated risks, learn from success or failure, and apply that to the next problem in the pipeline.

  • Collaborate across the organization to establish unified and intelligent designs, robust interactions, and minimal code footprint required to deliver features.

  • Do all this in a way that respects teamwork, diversity of opinion, and which maintains blockit’s core values.
