Make decisions that will have substantial impact on our release, our technical strategy, and company success. Work on strategic platforms and propose technical/quality strategy and roadmaps. You'll figure out what needs to be done and get buy-in from others that it is the right thing to do. Take calculated risks, learn from success or failure, and apply that to the next problem in the pipeline. Well-grounded with deep knowledge in multiple areas that touch modern-day software development both theoretical and practical. Ride the crest of the tech wavefront by having a voracious appetite to keep up to date with current technology trends around the world. Ability to have the attitude to work on anything and everything. No task is beneath you.
