Job Purpose

We are looking for a highly experienced Full Stack Engineer with 10+ years of technical experience to take end‑to‑end ownership of an enterprise platform covering CRM, project and portfolio delivery, and financial workflows.

The platform is built using Microsoft SQL Server, Node.js/Express, React, and React Native and operates in a secure, on‑premise Windows environment with restricted/offline internet access.

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and enhancing the application across the database, backend, frontend, security, and deployment layers. This is a hands‑on generalist role requiring strong database expertise and the ability to work independently in a controlled on‑premise environment.

  • Design and safely evolve Microsoft SQL Server database schemas while maintaining data integrity and audit requirements.
  • Develop and maintain T‑SQL stored procedures, views, and database scripts.
  • Create and manage sequential database migration scripts without relying on ORM or migration frameworks.
  • Develop production‑grade Node.js and Express APIs.
  • Implement RESTful APIs, JSON‑based integrations, authentication, validation, error handling, and third‑party integrations.
  • Develop responsive and maintainable web applications using React and TypeScript.
  • Work with React hooks, API clients, server‑state management, typed forms, validation, and data visualization.
  • Implement and maintain application security, including authentication, authorization, RBAC, secure coding, CORS, XSS prevention, upload validation, and secrets management.
  • Perform end‑to‑end development from database and API layers through to the user interface.
  • Support deployment and operational activities in an on‑premise Windows Server environment.
  • Develop and maintain deployment scripts using PowerShell.
  • Manage Windows services, scheduled tasks, firewall configuration, and application dependencies.
  • Perform controlled, script‑based releases in an environment without runtime internet access.
  • Ensure all dependencies and application assets are vetted and bundled appropriately before deployment.
  • Troubleshoot application, database, deployment, and performance issues.
  • Contribute to performance optimization, maintainability, reliability, and security of the platform.
