Job Title

Full Stack Developer

Government Mandated Benefits

  • 5+ years of professional full stack development experience.
  • Strong proficiency in React — including functional components, hooks, state management (Redux, Zustand, or Context API), and front-end build tooling (Vite, Webpack, Next.js).
  • Expert-level experience in Java back-end development, preferably with Spring Boot and RESTful API design.
  • Solid experience in Python for back-end services, scripting, or data-adjacent workflows.
  • Demonstrated experience deploying and operating applications on Google Cloud Platform and/or Microsoft Azure.
  • Familiarity with containerization using Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes (GKE or AKS).
  • Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Cloud SQL, BigQuery) and non-relational databases (Firestore, CosmosDB, MongoDB).
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and GitHub workflows (branching strategies, pull requests, GitHub Actions).
  • Solid understanding of software design patterns, distributed systems, and microservices architecture.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Job Qualifications

  • Experience with REST API development.
  • Familiarity with Google Cloud Pub/Sub, Dataflow, or Cloud Composer for event-driven or data pipeline integrations.
  • Experience with TypeScript for front-end and/or Node.js services.
  • Experience in Agile/Scrum environments with tools like Jira.
  • Background working in related industries (retail, shopping, etc.).

Job Responsibilities

  • Front-End Development: Design and build responsive, performant, and accessible user interfaces using React (including hooks, context, Redux or similar state management, and component libraries such as Material UI or Tailwind CSS).
  • Back-End Development: Develop robust, secure, and scalable server-side applications and RESTful or GraphQL APIs using Java (Spring Boot or equivalent) and Python (FastAPI or Flask).
  • Cloud-Native Applications: Build and deploy applications optimized for cloud environments on Google Cloud Platform (Cloud Run, App Engine, GKE, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage) and Microsoft Azure (Azure App Services, AKS, Azure Functions, Service Bus).
  • Database Design: Design and manage relational and non-relational data stores including Cloud SQL, BigQuery, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Firestore, and Azure Cosmos DB, with an emphasis on performance, security, and data integrity.
  • CI/CD & DevOps Collaboration: Work with DevOps teams to support and consume CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions, Cloud Build, or Azure DevOps, and contribute to infrastructure discussions as a cloud-aware developer.
  • Microservices & APIs: Architect and maintain microservices-based systems using containerization (Docker, Kubernetes/GKE/AKS) with a clear understanding of service communication, resiliency patterns, and API versioning.
  • Code Quality & Standards: Champion clean code, SOLID principles, and test-driven development. Conduct thorough code reviews and mentor junior developers to uphold engineering standards.
  • Security Best Practices: Implement authentication and authorization standards (OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT), manage secrets responsibly, and follow OWASP guidelines for secure application development.
  • Monitoring & Troubleshooting: Instrument applications with logging, metrics, and tracing using tools like Grafana to support observability and rapid incident resolution.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Communicate effectively with DevOps, data engineering, product, and design teams — participating in sprint planning, technical design discussions, and architecture reviews.
