We are looking for a Senior Fullstack Software Developer (React, Node.js, TypeScript) to join our engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and delivering end-to-end features across the full stack, contributing to the creation of scalable, high-quality, and production-ready web applications.
If you are passionate about modern web development, product-focused engineering, and building robust systems that scale, this opportunity is for you.
💻 What you will be doing
- Own and deliver features end to end, from data modelling and API design to user-facing interfaces.
- Design and implement scalable and maintainable systems using TypeScript across both backend and frontend.
- Build, maintain, and evolve backend services using Node.js, APIs, databases, and background workflows, with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and data integrity.
- Develop high-quality frontend experiences using React, optimising rendering performance, state management, and overall user experience.
- Collaborate closely with product, design, and AI-focused teams to integrate AI-powered capabilities into production systems.
- Translate product requirements and ambiguous problem statements into well-architected technical solutions.
- Define, implement, and uphold engineering standards, including testing strategies (unit, integration, end-to-end) and observability (logging, monitoring, analytics).
- Conduct code reviews and contribute to architectural decisions and critical feature designs.
- Identify bottlenecks, bugs, and technical debt, proposing and implementing effective solutions.
- Act as a product-minded engineer, collaborating with product and design to shape solutions and challenge assumptions when appropriate.
🧠 What we are looking for
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- Several years of hands‑on experience building and operating production-grade web applications and distributed systems.
- Strong, hands‑on experience across the full stack, including:
- Backend: Node.js, API design, relational and/or NoSQL databases
- Frontend: React, modern CSS, state management
- Deep expertise in TypeScript, with a strong focus on type safety, maintainability, and developer productivity.
- Proven ability to work autonomously and take ownership of complex features from concept to deployment.
- Strong product and UX sensibility, balancing quality with efficient delivery.
- Comfort working in fast‑paced, evolving environments and collaborating across engineering, product, and design teams.
- Curiosity and enthusiasm for AI‑assisted development workflows and modern web platforms.
- Full professional proficiency in English.
- Availability to start within 30 days (maximum notice period).
🧰 Plus (not required but valued)
- Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL.
- Familiarity with event‑driven or asynchronous architectures.
- Experience building platforms, marketplaces, or extensible application ecosystems.
- Knowledge of frontend architecture trade-offs (SSR vs SPA, performance optimisation, SEO).
- Exposure to DevOps practices and tooling (Docker, Kubernetes, monitoring/observability).
- Interest or experience in Web3, blockchain, or decentralised/sovereign web technologies.
💡 Why join us?
- Build and ship end‑to‑end features with real product ownership.
- Work in a collaborative, high‑performing engineering team.
- Develop modern, scalable web platforms used in real‑world production environments.
- Continuous learning and professional growth opportunities.
- A culture that values quality, autonomy, and continuous improvement.
