- Exceptional engineering culture with a 5‑year equity exercise window, top‑tier private healthcare, and a small, elite team that prioritises quality and craftsmanship.
What You Will Do
- Develop and scale end‑to‑end features using TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Postgres, deployed via Kubernetes on Google Cloud Platform.
- Architect and expand a public REST API and real‑time WebSocket infrastructure to support a growing marketplace of third‑party integrations.
- Collaborate deeply with product and design teams to translate complex workforce data models into reliable, AI‑driven automation workflows for global enterprises.
The Ideal Candidate
- Extensive industry experience in full‑stack SaaS development with deep proficiency in Node.js and a strong appreciation for TypeScript.
- Proven track record of taking ownership of vague product problems and driving them to high‑quality, customer‑ready releases in a fast‑paced startup.
- Strong product sense and design craftsmanship, with the ability to balance technical excellence with pragmatic business trade‑offs and user impact.
