Zusammenfassung

Velix is seeking a world-class full-stack engineer to own the end-to-end software lifecycle—from requirements to UI, backend, and infra. You will collaborate with founders and customers, ship rapidly, and wear multiple hats across infrastructure, internal tooling, and performance optimization.

You’ll apply AI tooling to accelerate delivery and help shape engineering culture, with a focus on scalable, modular systems that drive business value in the FinTech/logistics space.

Qualifikationen

• 6+ years experience with a combination of 0-1 application development and full ownership of the software lifecycle through deployment.
• Prior experience working directly with non-engineer stakeholders/founders, without support from product managers.
• AI enthusiast — you build prototypes via Claude Code/Codex and know how to get more done with AI workflows; comfortable in an AI-first environment.
• Able to write well-factored algorithms, with experience using common data structures and algorithms.
• Customer obsession — you can articulate and represent the customer experience to drive the right outcome, and work directly with customers to gather requirements.
• A collaborative, low-ego attitude and team-first mindset.
• Experience in logistics, APIs, or multi-sided platforms.
• Experience at an early stage startup.
• Prior work in a FinTech, APIs, Logistics, or multi-sided platform company.
• Proven experience building product with significant data or financial complexity.
• Frontend: React
• Infra & Data: AWS

Aufgaben

• Own your work, from requirements gathering to building the user interface, backend architecture, and infrastructure, including ongoing operations.
• Collaborate closely with customers and founders to understand real pain points and translate them into elegant technical solutions.
• Move fast, ship fast. Propose and deliver solutions end-to-end without heavy oversight.
• Wear multiple hats. You might spin up infrastructure one day, design an internal tool the next, and optimize performance the day after.
• Shape the culture. Help define our engineering principles, code quality standards, and internal processes as we scale.
• Build with leverage. Use AI tools like Claude Code and Codex to accelerate delivery, prototype ideas, and improve developer velocity.
• Contribute to product strategy. Work hand-in-hand with design to simplify complexity into intuitive UX and actionable insights.
• Think in systems. Design scalable, modular components that make it easy for others to build on your work later.
• Deliver incremental functionality. Break projects and features down into incremental deliverables to provide quick, visible results to customers and other stakeholders.
