Job description

Employment Type: Full-Time

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced AI Full-Stack Developer who thrives on building intelligent, polished, and practical business tools from the ground up.

This isn't a traditional developer role where you'll simply implement tickets. You'll own projects end-to-end—from designing data models and integrating multiple SaaS platforms to delivering intuitive, production-ready interfaces that people genuinely enjoy using.

The ideal candidate already uses AI-assisted coding tools like OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar as an essential part of their daily development workflow, helping them build faster while maintaining high-quality code.

Requirements

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, build, and maintain full-stack web applications from concept to production.
• Develop scalable applications using modern frameworks such as Next.js, React, Svelte, and Python.
• Build internal business tools and operational dashboards that improve business efficiency.
• Integrate third-party platforms using REST APIs, webhooks, authentication, and API keys.
• Design clean, intuitive, and user-friendly interfaces with a strong focus on usability.
• Own projects across the full development lifecycle—from architecture and backend logic to polished frontend delivery.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to translate business problems into practical technical solutions.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools as a core part of your daily workflow to accelerate delivery without compromising quality.

Technical Skills

• 3–5+ years of full-stack development experience.
• Strong experience with:
• Next.js
• React
• Python
• Experience building and consuming REST APIs.
• Practical experience working with:
• Webhooks
• API keys
• SaaS integrations
• Strong understanding of application architecture, data modeling, and scalable development practices.

AI Development Experience

• Hands-on experience using AI-assisted coding tools such as:
• OpenAI Codex
• Cursor
• Similar AI development tools
• AI-assisted development should be a regular part of your workflow—not occasional experimentation.

UX & Product Ownership

• Demonstrated ability to create interfaces that are both functional and visually intuitive.
• Strong understanding of UX principles and the reasoning behind good design decisions.
• Experience building polished internal tools rather than solely consumer-facing applications.
• Comfortable owning a product from planning through final implementation without relying on separate design handoffs.

We're looking for someone who is:

• A builder who enjoys solving real business problems.
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership.
• Curious about AI and modern development workflows.
• Detail-oriented with a strong eye for quality.
• Able to balance speed with thoughtful engineering decisions.
• Passionate about creating software that's enjoyable to use—not just functional
