What sort of person works at Figured?We know you're early in your career, and it's great if you've developed software products before and dabbled with PHP, but that will only get you started. What will set you apart and take you the distance will be:

Learning agility - you love to learn new things by doing and do that quickly
Complexity - you thrive when problem-solving and love a good head scratcher to dive into
Communication/collaboration - extra emphasis on this! As part of a tight-knit team solving complex problems, we default to overcommunicating and working collaboratively and openly
Initiative - you prefer to go and figure something out rather than waiting to be told
Independent - you thrive on autonomy and are not phased by having to dig around to collect information, don’t worry, we’ll hand that ball back to you if you drop it
AI curiosity - you might not have had the opportunity to use it at work, but you must be curious and eager to use AI day-to-day
