Proficient with React: You'll spend a lot of your time building things with React and will need to understand modern React practices (and Javascript / NodeJS in general)
Strong with OOP: While most of our stack is JavaScript, when it comes to Electron and our backend, a strong understanding of object-oriented programming is required.
