About InfoTrust

InfoTrust is a global, privately-owned consulting and solutions agency dedicated to unlocking the power of data to drive marketing performance and business growth. We specialize in digital analytics, media enablement, and privacy-centric solutions that help the world’s largest brands optimize their marketing strategies. Our culture is built on passion, ownership, diversity, trust, respect, and continuous growth—values that have earned us multiple "best places to work" awards, including a Great Place to Work certification.

About this Role

Tag Inspector, an InfoTrust product, is a 10-year industry leader in digital data privacy and governance. We are seeking an Associate Full-Stack Engineer to join our lean, high-impact engineering team. In this role, you will move beyond simple "ticket-taking" to perform forensic debugging, maintain cloud-native infrastructure, and help modernize our core global SaaS platform.

Responsibilities:

• Maintain & Modernize: Support our AWS-based product while incrementally transitioning features toward a new, cloud-agnostic architecture.

• Forensic Debugging: Identify root causes in legacy logic by investigating code history to recommend long-term architectural cures rather than quick fixes.

• Feature Development: Build, test, and ship responsive front-end components in Vue.js and robust backend services in Python.

• Collaborative Support: Take full ownership of maintenance tickets and QA tasks, acting as a force multiplier for senior architects.

• Self-Sufficient Problem Solving: Research unknowns and propose "next steps" independently, demonstrating high resourcefulness before escalating.

You could be a great fit if:

• You have 1–4 years of professional experience with Python (writing clean, maintainable code) and Vue.js (or React/Angular with a willingness to transition).

• You possess a "forensic" mindset—the ability to trace data flow through complex systems and enjoy "reading" code as much as writing it.

• You have foundational experience navigating AWS for legacy maintenance and feel comfortable using Docker and Git.

• You are proficient in querying and managing data in Postgres or MySQL.

• You have a high interest in architectural patterns and web privacy (pixels, cookies, and browser mechanics).

Bonus:

• Prior experience with the "Strangler Pattern" for migrating legacy systems.

• Specific interest or experience in digital privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, etc.).

You shouldn’t apply if:

• You prefer a role where tasks are strictly defined and handed off via tickets without the need for deep investigation.

• You are looking for a purely greenfield development environment without the need to maintain or refactor legacy code.

Logistics:

• Employment: This position is hired through our local Professional Employer Organization (PEO) partner in the Philippines: KMC Solutions.

• Location: InfoTrust is looking for a candidate who will work out of our Cebu City or Manila office—fully in person for the first 3 months and then moving to a hybrid schedule.

• Reports to: Director of Product Development

Why work here?

At InfoTrust, employees are deeply connected to our core values and have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact and be their best selves everyday.

• Earn Trust: Deliver on what you promise.

• Be Respectful: Don't be an a**hole.

• Promote Diversity: Seek understanding and be inclusive.

• Take Ownership: There is no "they.” Take initiative.

• Grow Every Day: Learn and apply.

• Contribute With Passion: Desire to do good. Give to grow.

Benefits

Benefits are provided through our local PEO and include, but are not limited to: health/vision/dental insurance, generous PTO, parental leave, and more. Ask your recruiter for more details!
