Full job description
About the Role We’re hiring a Full Stack Engineer to build and scale end-to-end web applications across our platform. This role sits at the intersection of product, infrastructure, and applied AI, working closely with a small, fast-moving team to ship features that directly impact customers. You’ll own development across the stack: from frontend interfaces to backend APIs, data models, and external integrations. The environment is highly iterative, with a strong bias toward shipping, learning, and refining quickly. If you enjoy operating with autonomy, working on ambiguous problems, and building systems from first principles, this role is a strong fit. What You’ll Do
- Build and maintain full-stack features across frontend (React) and backend (TypeScript APIs)
- Design and implement scalable data models using NoSQL databases
- Integrate third-party services (e.g., APIs, auth, payments, document systems)
- Work with AI coding tools and agent-driven workflows to accelerate development
- Own features end-to-end, from initial concept through deployment and iteration
- Collaborate closely with product and design to translate requirements into shipped functionality
- Improve system performance, reliability, and developer experience over time
- Contribute to architectural decisions as the platform evolves
Qualifications
- 2–5 years of experience building production-grade web applications (excluding internships)
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and modern React frameworks
- Experience designing and working with APIs and distributed systems
- Familiarity with NoSQL databases and flexible data modeling patterns
- Comfort using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., code generation, copilots, agents)
- Experience in a startup or high-velocity environment preferred
- Ability to operate independently and take ownership of ambiguous problems
- Strong product intuition and focus on delivering user value
