Client-side · live preview · personal projectHiring Mindset
What I look for in a team.
For recruiters and founders — the philosophy behind how I hire and who I want to work with.
Compounding DNA
The first 5 hires define a startup's trajectory. I look for owners, not coders — people who treat the codebase, the infra, and the product as their own.
Pragmatic Architecture
I choose tools that reduce the distance between idea and production. Dagster for orchestration, Bun for speed. The right abstraction beats the popular one.
Zero-to-One Mindset
I thrive in ambiguity. I set up the VPC, write the first CI pipeline, and ship the first React component — often in the same week.
