What you'll do
- Design, build, test, deploy and monitor product features across the frontend and backend.
- Work closely with Product Management and Product Design from the problem-definition stage, helping shape the solution rather than simply implementing a finished specification.
- Break down projects into clear increments, estimate work, identify dependencies and risks, and communicate early when the plan needs to change.
- Take ownership of what you ship in production, from instrumentation and monitoring to incident diagnosis and continuous improvement.
- Contribute to high-quality code reviews, pragmatic testing strategies, refactoring and the active management of technical debt.
- Document decisions, share knowledge and help improve engineering practices and codebase over time.
- Depending on level, plan multi-week projects, design architectures that others can implement and introduce practices that continue to work without you in the loop.
What we're looking for
- At least 5 years of professional software development experience, with a track record of shipping and owning meaningful product features.
- Real experience contributing to both frontend and backend development, even if one side is currently stronger.
- Solid experience with React/Next.js or a comparable modern frontend stack, as well as building APIs and working with data using Node.js or a comparable backend stack.
- Good knowledge of SQL and PostgreSQL.
- Can take a feature from an ambiguous problem to a reliable production release, making pragmatic technical and product trade-offs.
- Care about code quality, testing, maintainability and production reliability without losing sight of delivery and user impact.
- Communicate clearly, collaborate without ego and are comfortable working closely with Product and Design.
- Autonomous and reliable in a distributed team, while knowing when to ask for context, feedback or support.
Nice to have
- Experience with React Native.
- Experience working on a B2C product, marketplace, mobile application, booking or payment journey.
- Previous experience working remotely.
- Comfortable working in English in a professional environment.
