  • Deliver solutions for high-impact clients across the United States and Europe

Requirements

  • Proven experience building backend systems with JavaScript, TypeScript, and Node.js
  • Demonstrated ability to move beyond task execution and contribute to product-level thinking
  • Hands-on experience using AI coding assistants in real-world development workflows
  • Strong command of English and comfort collaborating remotely

  • History of improving engineering efficiency or delivery practices
  • Self-directed work style with confidence in leading technical direction

Benefits
