Full Job Description

About The Role

We're hiring a Full-Stack Engineer who is equally comfortable building a polished Next.js interface and a reliable NestJS API behind it. You'll build customer-facing products, including AI-powered features like chat interfaces, streaming responses, and agent-driven workflows.

What You'll Do

Frontend:
  • Build responsive, accessible, high-performance UIs with React, Next.js (App Router, RSC) and TypeScript
  • Build AI-facing interfaces: streaming chat UIs, tool-call/agent-status displays, and loading, error, and retry states for non-deterministic outputs
  • Monitor web vitals and fix performance regressions
Backend:
  • Design and build scalable REST/GraphQL APIs and services with Node.js and NestJS
  • Model, query, and optimize data in PostgreSQL (schema design, indexing, migrations) using an ORM like Prisma or Drizzle
  • Implement auth, authorization, validation, background jobs, queues, and caching (Redis)
  • Integrate LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini), including streaming (SSE/WebSockets), tool calling, retries, rate limits, and cost/latency control
AI-Assisted Engineering:
  • Use AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) for scaffolding, refactoring, debugging, and test writing
  • Write and maintain project context for AI tools (rules files, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, reusable prompts) so the whole team gets better output
  • Review AI-generated code critically for correctness, security, performance, and maintainability
Team and Delivery:
  • Write unit, integration, and E2E tests, using AI to speed them up rather than skip them
  • Take part in code reviews, sprint planning, architecture discussions, and on-call/incident follow-ups
  • Document APIs, decisions, and runbooks clearly
Must-Have (Non-Negotiable)

Frontend:

  • Strong JavaScript (ES6+) and TypeScript
  • React (hooks, state management, rendering behavior) and Next.js (App Router, SSR/SSG/RSC)
  • HTML/CSS fundamentals, Tailwind or similar, responsive design, and accessibility basics

Backend:

  • Production experience with Node.js and a structured framework (NestJS preferred; Express/Fastify with good architecture is fine)
  • Solid PostgreSQL skills: relational modeling, joins, indexes, transactions, query optimization
  • API design: REST principles, pagination, versioning, error handling, input validation
  • Authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth2, sessions, RBAC)

Engineering Fundamentals:

  • Git, PR workflows, and code review habits
  • Testing across layers (Jest/Vitest, React Testing Library, API/integration tests; Playwright/Cypress is a plus)
  • Basic security awareness (OWASP top 10, secrets management, input sanitization)

AI-Assisted Development:

  • Daily, hands-on use of at least one AI coding tool (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Windsurf, or similar)
  • Ability to write clear prompts, give useful context, and break big tasks into steps an AI can handle
  • Habit of reviewing, testing, and understanding AI output before committing it
  • Basic understanding of how LLMs work: context windows, hallucinations, token cost, and why outputs vary
Nice to Have:
  • Redis, message queues (BullMQ, SQS, Kafka), or event-driven architecture
  • Monorepo tooling (Turborepo, pnpm workspaces, Nx)
  • Design system or component library work (shadcn/ui, Radix, Storybook)
  • tRPC, GraphQL, or OpenAPI-driven type-safe clients
  • Multi-tenant SaaS, payments (Stripe/Razorpay), or real-time features
  • Open-source contributions, a side project, or shipped AI features you can demo

What We Expect From You:
  • Ownership: take a feature from schema to UI to production, and flag risks early
  • Judgment over speed: AI makes you faster, and you're still accountable for every line you ship
  • Security awareness: no secrets in prompts, no blind copy-paste of AI code, and sensitive data stays out of third-party tools
  • Systems thinking: consider scale, failure modes, and cost, not just the happy path
  • Learning speed: the AI tooling landscape changes every few months, and you keep up and share what works
  • Clear communication: PRs, docs, and async updates that others can follow
