They all have technical chops
It is exciting to have an ownership stake in the company.
Knowing that the work I do makes a direct impact for customers and the overall health of the industry.
They are supremely technically competent and yet still easy to work with. They are friendly and willing to share knowledge through constructive feedback during code reviews and meetings.
Technical reviews (e.g., like code reviews) are a chance to improve the product and not simply a checkbox item or, worse, a chance to show off by pointing out other developer's mistakes.
