At MarsBased, you’ll work with a small, senior, and highly collaborative team that values autonomy, transparency, and craftsmanship. We care about doing things the right way, with clean architectures, thoughtful design, and deep, focused work (not endless meetings).

- Excellent attention to detail and commitment to high-quality output.
- Proactive & able to work alone on projects managed by you.

- Experience using AI agents or AI code editors (e.g., Cursor, Copilot) to assist in coding tasks.
Technical Skills

- Ability to write self-documented code. We expect you not only to solve problems but also to write code that is easy to understand.
- Ability to leverage AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Gemini Code Assist, or Cursor) to enhance productivity, accelerate boilerplate generation, improve code explanations, and aid in debugging and testing.
