    Preferred Qualifications:
    - Experience with data visualization libraries such as D3, Cytoscape, Sigma.js, vis.js, or Recharts, particularly for graph/network visualizations
    - Experience with social listening, social media data, or large-scale web data platforms
    - Familiarity with Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Redis, or Airflow
    - Prior experience at a seed-to-Series B startup
