Full Stack Engineer

Summary

Build and lead scalable web apps using NestJS, Next.js, and TypeScript, owning architecture, performance, and cross-team collaboration for a fast-growing SaaS portfolio.

Description

We are a fast-growing tech company with a portfolio of SaaS products serving diverse industries. Innovation, performance, and design precision are core to our values. As we scale, we are looking for talented Senior Fullstack Developers to join our team and take a key role in crafting highly performant, maintainable, and user-focused web applications.

Key Responsibilities

  • Contribute to both backend (NestJS) and frontend (NextJS) systems by designing and building scalable, secure, and maintainable features, while leading architecture decisions across services, APIs, and cross-stack boundaries.
  • Champion clean code, modular design, and testability through active contribution, reusable components, and mentoring.
  • Drive system-level decisions around performance, observability, and scalability, and ensure alignment between product goals and technical implementation.
  • Own and enforce code quality via reviews, maintain CI/CD reliability, and collaborate closely with DevOps to ensure release stability and consistent environments.
  • Monitor and optimize system performance, define logging and alerting standards, and lead incident response and continuous improvement efforts.
  • Work closely with product, QA, and designers to unblock delivery, while mentoring engineers and fostering technical alignment across squads.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of fullstack development experience with NestJS, Node.js, NextJS, and TypeScript
  • Strong understanding of PostgreSQL, data modeling, and optimization techniques
  • Solid experience building and consuming REST with secure JWT-based auth flows
  • Proven ability to lead architecture decisions, enforce code quality, and guide teams through technical complexity
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and environment management (bonus: K8s, ArgoCD)
  • Experience with frontend performance optimization (SSR, lazy loading, state management)
  • Comfortable working in cross-functional squads with product, QA, and design
  • Clear written and async communication, especially in distributed teams
  • Systemic thinking — seeing the bigger picture across stack, squads, and products
  • Ownership mindset, from design to delivery to incident resolution
  • Background in observability tooling (e.g., Sentry, Datadog, Groundcover) and defining alerting/logging standards
  • Pragmatic decision-making, balancing trade-offs in real-world scenarios

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with component libraries (e.g., Storybook, React UI) or design systems
  • Exposure to event-driven systems using tools like Kafka, RabbitMQ, or AWS SNS/SQS
  • Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
  • Contributions to internal platforms, shared packages, or developer experience tools

Benefits

  • Long-term, full-time position (40h/week)
  • 22 days of paid annual leave per year
  • Bank holidays as per the country you live in
  • Work on high-profile, global, modern tech digital products generating millions of visitors monthly
  • Flexible working hours (between 7AM and 6PM to cover dailies and weeklies)
  • Work from home
  • Stable, no-stress, drama-free working environment
