Job description

Full Stack & AI-Augmented Software Developer

We build web and mobile applications, business systems, and AI-powered tools for SMEs across Malaysia and Singapore. Small team, real ownership — you'll take features from "client described a vague problem" to "it's live and working." The single most important thing we're hiring for: you can figure out how something works without documentation. A lot of our work involves inheriting someone else's codebase, integrating with an API that has no docs, or debugging a production issue where the error message is a lie.

What you'll do:

Build and maintain web apps in React and mobile apps in React Native

Write backend services and automation in Python and Node.js

Integrate third‑party systems — REST, webhooks, and APIs that are undocumented or badly documented

Inspect, trace, and reverse-engineer existing systems: legacy code, unfamiliar databases, network traffic, third‑party payloads

Debug production issues end to end — front end, API layer, database, server

Build AI-assisted tooling: document/OCR pipelines, chat agents, data extraction and verification flows

Deploy and maintain on Ubuntu/Docker

Requirements:

Core skills — this is what we're really testing for:

Troubleshooting. You can isolate a bug systematically instead of guessing. You know how to bisect a problem, read a stack trace properly, and reproduce reliably before you fix.

Reverse engineering. Comfortable working out how an undocumented API or an inherited codebase behaves — reading network traffic, tracing call paths, testing hypotheses against a live system.

Critical thinking. You question requirements that don't make sense, spot the edge case the client didn't mention, and don't accept "it works on my machine" from yourself or from an AI.

Technical:

3–5 years hands‑on experience

React and React Native (shipped at least one app to a store or internal distribution)

Python and Node.js for backend/automation

Solid SQL — can debug a slow query and write non‑trivial joins unaided

Daily practical use of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot or similar) — and the judgement to know when the output is wrong

Nice to have:

LLM API work: structured output, RAG, vision/OCR

Self-hosted inference (Ollama, vLLM, local GPU)

Mobile release experience — App Store / Play Store submission, OTA updates

Experience integrating with business/accounting systems

Malaysian business context: SST, MyInvois e-invoicing, local payment gateways

Flexible working hours & arrangements

Competitive remuneration & Performance bonus

Weekly badminton & monthly team building

Office accessible via LRT Kerinchi
