You have to know your characters very well and have their unique voice in mind.

Is it ever! Voice in 1st person POV is difficult, and I'm still working on my awareness when writing. I spent three decades writing in 3rd, so I know this still challenges me.  I plan to convert an old work written in 3rd person with labeled POV character chapters to 1st person, which I think I can write better. It will be a total rewrite, of course, and since I think that means about ten POVs over three books, this will be a challenge.
