- Write production-quality code and contribute to Holochain tools, applications, core components, mixins, tutorials, and examples.
- Commit, review, and test Holochain-Core code.
- Participate in the full Holochain app development process, as well as UX development & optimization.
- Comfortable with full stack web and mobile/desktop software development; for example, progressive web front-end, web services, web application, and optional native mobile/desktop development.
- Excel in software architecture, including creating composable libraries and starter applications for use by developers in the ecosystem.

- Create new market opportunities and identify innovative solutions to expand developer engagements.
- Be an inspiring leader in the market and the voice of developers in the ecosystem.

- You are a friendly and approachable person, as well as a great mentor.
- You have an entrepreneurial mindset and the ability to act effectively with only high-level direction.
