Job description

About Jobgether

Jobgether is an AI-powered career coach and matching platform helping people find remote and flexible jobs faster. We design each user’s job search strategy, help them stand out, and connect them only with roles that fit.

We work fully remotely and value ownership, clarity, and fast execution. What matters is output, not location.

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to help us scale Jobgether’s core platform, from our Astro-based frontend to our backend services and data pipelines. You will work across the stack and ship features end to end: spec, build, test, deploy.

This role is for someone who likes simplicity, clean architecture, and fast iteration. You’ll work directly with the CTO and play a key part in shaping our technical direction as we grow.

What You’ll Work On

Frontend (Astro + JS/TS)

• Own the development of our Astro-based frontend and component system.
• Improve performance, SEO, and UI consistency across the platform.
• Implement user-facing features: dashboards, onboarding, job matching flows, profile tools.

Backend (Python + APIs + integrations)

• Build and maintain API endpoints and microservices.
• Work on our matching engine, ML-powered features, and data-processing tools.
• Improve reliability, logging, and overall system stability.

Architecture & Infra

• Help simplify and evolve our architecture as usage grows.
• Improve deployment workflows and automate repetitive tasks.
• Contribute to decisions around scalability, caching, and data pipelines.

Collaboration

• Work closely with product, design, and data teams.
• Participate in planning, give technical input, and turn specs into working solutions.
• Bring a pragmatic approach: build what matters, avoid unnecessary complexity.

Our Tech Stack

Frontend

• Astro (core framework)
• JavaScript / TypeScript
• Tailwind
• HTML/CSS

Backend

• Python
• FastAPI
• PostgreSQL
• Redis
• AWS (Lambda, S3, EC2, etc.)

Other

• GitHub
• CI/CD workflows
• Experience integrating external APIs

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience as a full stack or backend-focused engineer.
• Strong JS/TS fundamentals and experience with modern frameworks.
• Solid Python experience and ability to build clean APIs.
• Experience with SQL databases and basic DevOps practices.
• Ability to work independently, make decisions, and own features end to end.
• Good communication skills.
• Fluent in English.
• Experience with Astro is a strong plus. If you haven’t used Astro yet, you must be comfortable ramping up quickly.

Why Join Us

• Fully remote, async, and flexible.
• Small team with fast decision-making.
• Build a product that has real impact for job seekers worldwide.
• Work directly with the founders.
• Competitive compensation with equity.
