  • A demonstrated deep curiosity
  • Examples of how you tackled roadblocks and cleared them
  • Experience in collaborating across engineering disciplines (e.g., interacting with electrical engineers, software teams, etc. on large projects)
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a dynamic environment, adapt to changes and deliver on milestones on tight timelines
  • Comfortable working as part of a startup team, taking on outsized responsibility of assigned projects and tasks and demonstrating ability to suggest key improvements - including ones that shape the company’s future
