Job Description

Senior Full Stack Developer (React / Node / AWS) – Remote | High-Growth Product Team

Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours

About the Role

We’re hiring a Senior Full Stack Developer to build, scale, and optimize modern web applications end-to-end.

This is a hands-on role — you’ll write production code daily while also:

• Shaping architecture
• Improving performance
• Mentoring developers

You’ll work across the full stack:
👉 Frontend → Backend → Database → Deployment

If you enjoy shipping real features (not just planning them), this role is built for you.

What You’ll Own

1. Full Stack Development (Core Focus)

• Build end-to-end features across:
• Frontend (UI)
• Backend (APIs, logic)
• Database

• Deliver clean, scalable, production-ready code

2. Frontend Development

• Build responsive UIs using:
• React
• Angular
• Vue.js

• Implement state management:
• Redux / Context API / Vuex

• Ensure:
• Performance
• Accessibility
• Cross-device compatibility

3. Backend Development

• Build APIs using:
• Node.js
• Django / Flask
• Spring Boot

• Design:
• REST APIs
• GraphQL endpoints

• Optimize backend performance and scalability

4. Database & Data Layer

• Work with:
• PostgreSQL
• MySQL
• MongoDB

• Design schemas and optimize queries
• Implement caching:
• Redis

5. Testing & Code Quality

• Write tests using:
• Jest
• Cypress

• Maintain:
• ≥ 80% code coverage

• Conduct peer code reviews

6. DevOps & Deployment

• Use:
• Git (GitHub / GitLab)

• Deploy via:
• CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins)

• Work with cloud platforms:
• Amazon Web Services
• Microsoft Azure
• Google Cloud Platform

7. Mentorship & Technical Leadership

• Mentor junior developers
• Review code and enforce best practices
• Contribute to architecture and roadmap decisions

What Makes You a Strong Fit

• You ship features end-to-end (not just one layer)
• You balance speed + clean architecture
• You’re comfortable debugging complex systems
• You communicate well with product/design teams
• You raise the level of engineers around you

Requirements (Must-Have)

• 5+ years full stack development experience
• Strong experience with:
• JavaScript / TypeScript
• React + Node.js

• Experience with:
• Relational DB + NoSQL DB

• Familiarity with:
• Git workflows
• CI/CD pipelines

Nice to Have

• SaaS or product-based company experience
• Microservices or serverless architecture
• Experience with:
• Docker
• Terraform

• Experience in high-growth environments

What a Typical Day Looks Like

• Join standup and align on priorities
• Build features across frontend + backend
• Review and merge PRs
• Debug performance issues
• Collaborate with product/design
• Deploy updates via CI/CD
• Document technical changes

In short:
You are both a builder and technical leader — shipping features while keeping systems scalable.

Key Metrics (KPIs)

• Features delivered on time
• Application uptime ≥ 99.9%
• Code coverage ≥ 80%
• Reduced technical debt
• Positive peer + stakeholder feedback

Why This Role Stands Out

• True full-stack ownership (not siloed work)
• High impact on product and architecture
• Opportunity to mentor and lead
• Fast-paced environment (real shipping, not bureaucracy)
• Growth into:
• Tech Lead
• Engineering Manager

Interview Process

• Initial Phone Screen
• Recruiter Interview
• Technical Assessment (build feature end-to-end)
• Client Interview
• Offer & Background Verification

If you’re a hands-on full stack engineer who enjoys building, scaling, and improving real systems — this is a strong opportunity to step into a high-impact senior role.
