Lead Full-Stack Software Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in New Jersey.

📋 Description

• Develop and deploy features from the database schema and backend services all the way to the user-facing web client.

• Create new domain modules utilizing our established architectural patterns and conventions.

• Assume responsibility for multi-tenant accuracy by writing migrations that adhere to Row-Level Security, respecting the RLS transaction context in queries, and following the persist/flush discipline.

• Integrate with shared platform services including background jobs, real-time updates, file storage, email, document intelligence, and authentication and authorization.

• Effectively utilize AI tools such as Claude Code (and similar) to streamline routine tasks, while exercising discretion on what to accept, adapt, or reject.

• Enhance quality through code reviews, type-safety, performance discipline (avoiding N+1 queries, lazy loading, and ensuring parallel APIs), and adherence to our trunk-based development workflow.

• Collaborate across functions with product managers, tech leads, QA, UX, and domain experts to translate functional requirements into well-structured software.

• Contribute to the evolution of the platform by proposing improvements to shared libraries (DTOs, validation rules, i18n, shared constants), the metadata system, and developer tools.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 5 years of professional experience in software engineering, specifically in building production web applications.

• Proficient in TypeScript for both frontend and backend development, with the ability to navigate seamlessly between the two.

• Strong experience in React (including hooks, component composition, performance, and state management) within a substantial application.

• Server-side experience with Node.js, preferably using a structured framework like NestJS; Express, Fastify, or similar frameworks are acceptable.

• Proficient in relational databases, preferably PostgreSQL, with skills in schema design, indexing, and writing migrations. Familiarity with an ORM (MikroORM, TypeORM, Prisma, Hibernate, etc.) is a plus.

• Experience in multi-tenant or SaaS environments and an understanding of the importance of tenant isolation (RLS, scoped queries, or equivalent methodologies).

• Familiar with modern delivery practices including Git, pull requests, CI/CD, code review, testing, and trunk-based or short-lived branch workflows.

• Proven productivity using AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar), with the ability to provide specific examples of their usage, benefits, and instances of overriding them.

• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, along with effective participation in code reviews. Capable of explaining trade-offs, providing constructive feedback, and documenting decisions.
