Job description

About the Role

We’re looking for a confident, battle-tested Senior TypeScript Developer to work for a high profile AI start-up team under Dijkstrack.

This isn’t a “we’ll teach you TypeScript” gig, we want an expert who writes clean, scalable code and solves problems before they become roadblocks.

You’ll be building and maintaining complex applications that customers love, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and shaping the technical roadmap. If you enjoy autonomy, ownership, and shipping impactful features fast, keep reading.

What You’ll Do

• Architect, build, and maintain scalable TypeScript applications (frontend and/or backend depending on team focus)

• Write clean, maintainable, tested code with an eye for performance and reliability

• Collaborate with product, design, and engineering peers across distributed teams

• Participate in code reviews — giving and receiving feedback like a pro

• Help define and enforce best practices, standards, and tooling

• Contribute to planning, estimations, and technical decisions that influence product direction

About You

Must-Haves

• Bachelor’s degree (Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent)

• Strong commercial experience with TypeScript — you use it confidently every day

• Solid understanding of modern JavaScript and ECMAScript standards

• Experience with frameworks such as React, Node.js, or similar

• Experience building and consuming REST APIs and/or GraphQL

• Strong debugging skills and a track record of shipping quality, production-ready code

• Excellent communication skills — written and spoken

• Comfortable working fully remote with core hours 10:00–18:00

Why You’ll Love This

• Fully remote team, but with structure and rhythm (no timezone chaos)

• Core hours that actually respect your mornings and evenings

• A chance to own real features customers interact with daily

• Highly collaborative, high-trust environment

• Work with smart engineers who care about code quality

How We Work

• Remote-first culture with asynchronous collaboration

• Transparent communication, we solve problems, not politics

• You’ll be measured on impact, not hours logged

Lets set up a call to see if we're a match.
