} satisfies Engineer;- Boring tech first — I won't introduce a framework that costs more than the problem it solves.
- Real dependencies in tests — Testcontainers over mocks, every time.
- Idempotency from day one — money endpoints and event consumers ship with keys.
- Compile-time over runtime — strict TypeScript, discriminated unions, branded types.
- One log per state transition — structured events; metrics for counts; traces for latency.
