• Brings a collaborative approach to teamwork, with a willingness to contribute ideas, ask questions, and try new things—even when unsure of the outcome. 

• Shows an interest in building and supporting software that is used in real-world environments and is eager to learn how production systems are maintained and monitored.

• Understands the basics of version control, code quality, and testing practices, and is willing to build knowledge in areas such as automated testing and continuous integration. 

• Familiar with or interested in learning Agile ways of working, including regular team collaboration, iterative delivery, and feedback loops. 

• Has basic exposure to one or more programming languages or technologies such as Python, Java, JavaScript, React or TypeScript, and is open to working across different parts of the technology stack (front-end, back-end, data, etc.). 

• Communicates clearly, works well with others, and shows professionalism and accountability in their work and behaviour. 

• Enthusiastic about using technology to solve problems and create value for users and clients.
