  • Oral and written communication skills: be prepared to frequently propose and discuss ideas and implementation with your teammates, as well as involving other stakeholders in Twilio - we’re one single team, no one flies solo! 
  • Curious mindset - we’re not looking for someone with all the answers, but rather someone who is prepared to grow with us. 
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field, or equivalent training, fellowship, or work experience..

Desired:

  • Experience with package managers - PNPM would be a plus.
