Role Overview
You will take ownership of development across our web applications and SaaS products. This includes building new features, reviewing and improving existing code, managing technical projects, and ensuring our systems are secure, scalable, and aligned with our long-term vision. You will work closely with leadership and non-technical team members, so strong communication and the ability to translate technical concepts into clear direction is essential.

Key Responsibilities

Development & Code Ownership
● Build, test, and deploy features for our SaaS web applications
● Read, analyze, and improve existing codebases
● Ensure code quality, scalability, and maintainability
● Identify and fix vulnerabilities, inefficiencies, and poor architecture
● Establish and enforce development best practices and standards

Technical Strategy & Architecture
● Design systems and features with long-term scalability in mind
● Make decisions on frameworks, tools, and structure
● Evaluate AI-generated code for accuracy and quality before implementation
● Optimize performance and system reliability

Project Management
● Own development timelines and deliverables
● Break down projects into clear tasks and milestones
● Collaborate with internal team members (marketing, ops, leadership)
● Ensure projects move forward proactively without constant oversight

AI-Enhanced Development
● Use tools like Claude and Abacus to accelerate development where appropriate
● Prompt effectively and refine outputs
● Validate and improve AI-generated code (not blindly trust it)

Deployment & DevOps
● Manage code through GitHub workflows
● Deploy and maintain applications via Vercel (or similar platforms)
● Handle integrations, APIs, and third-party tools
● Troubleshoot bugs, outages, and performance issues

Who You Are
● A true developer first — you understand code deeply, not just tools
● Experienced enough to recognise bad code, security risks, and poor structure immediately
● Comfortable working in fast-moving environments with evolving products
● Highly proactive — you don’t wait to be told what to do
● Strong communicator with excellent English (written and verbal)
● Organised and capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously

Required Experience
● 5+ years of hands-on development experience
● Proven ability to work within and improve existing codebases
● Experience building and maintaining web applications or SaaS products
● Strong understanding of:
○ Frontend and/or full-stack development
○ APIs and integrations
○ GitHub workflows
○ Deployment platforms (Vercel preferred)
● Experience reviewing code for quality, security, and scalability

This Role Is NOT For You If...
● You rely entirely on AI to write and understand code
● You struggle to explain technical concepts clearly
● You need constant direction or supervision
● You prioritise speed over quality and long-term structure

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who can take ownership of the codebase and infrastructure. This isn’t just a “build what you’re told” role—you’ll be the primary technical driver of the platform, making architecture decisions, shipping features end-to-end, and ensuring our systems run reliably in production. You’ll work directly with the founder and have real autonomy to shape the product’s technical direction.

Our Tech Stack

What You’ll Do

• Own the full application lifecycle—backend APIs, frontend UI, database schema, CI/CD pipelines, and production infrastructure on AWS
• Design, develop, and ship new features across the Java/Spring Boot backend and Angular frontend
• Manage and optimize our PostgreSQL database, including schema migrations (Liquibase), query performance tuning, and data integrity
• Maintain and improve AWS infrastructure: EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront, and related services
• Collaborate directly with the founder to translate business requirements into technical solutions
• Improve code quality through testing, code reviews, refactoring, and documentation
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues quickly and thoroughly
• Evaluate and adopt modern tools, frameworks, and practices to keep the platform competitive
• Leverage AI-powered development tools (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate delivery and improve code quality

What We’re Looking For

Required

• 5–8+ years of professional software development experience
• Strong proficiency in Java and the Spring Boot ecosystem (Spring MVC, Spring Data JPA, Spring Security)
• Solid front-end skills with Angular (TypeScript, RxJS, component architecture)
• Deep experience with PostgreSQL or similar relational databases—schema design, migrations, query optimization
• Hands-on experience with AWS services (EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront, IAM) or comparable cloud platforms
• Comfortable working across the entire stack and owning infrastructure alongside application code
• Strong English communication skills (written and verbal) for daily collaboration
• Self-directed and proactive—you take initiative, flag issues early, and don’t wait to be told what to do
• Available during US business hours (Central Time preferred, but flexible within the Americas)

Nice to Have

• Experience with JHipster-generated applications
• Familiarity with Liquibase for database change management
• Experience with Docker, CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar)
• Background in marketplace platforms, subscription billing, or scheduling systems
• Exposure to mapping/GIS tools (Google Maps API, geospatial queries)
• Interest in or experience with AI-assisted development workflows
