  • Experience in turning Figma/XD/Sketch designs into pixel-perfect interfaces

  • A passion for automation and repeatability to allow your creations to be tested efficiently

  • Data interoperation and UX skills. SQL first and foremost.

  • Ability to troubleshoot and investigate issues across systems

  • Desire to build, maintain and improve anything you work on with a high level of ownership

  • Above all this, we are looking for engineers that want to do the best they can, learn, improve, grow, lead, help others and add value every single day for yourself, your teammates and Helio
