About the Company
Litta is building operational infrastructure for waste collection at scale.
Position Overview
This role is not a conventional feature‑delivery position.
A large portion of the work focuses on improving the systems behind operations, reducing operational overhead, improving reliability, and making the business easier to run as volume grows.
Responsibilities
- Ship end‑to‑end features, integrate external systems, and use AI‑assisted tooling to accelerate delivery and reduce manual work.
- Build and maintain frontend applications using Vue, React, and Type Script.
- Develop and deploy backend services using Node. js, Firebase, and Google Cloud.
- Design and evolve APIs, data models, and system boundaries.
- Integrate third‑party systems such as Stripe, Hub Spot, Airtable, and Slack.
- Build and maintain workflow automations using n8n and custom scripts; work with webhooks, queues, and asynchronous workflows as core primitives.
- Replace manual operational processes with reliable, observable systems; own features end‑to‑end, from schema and integrations through to UI and deployment.
- Work in a small, fast‑moving team with lightweight processes; translate rough ideas into working solutions without a dedicated design function.
- Take ownership, get up to speed quickly across multiple codebases, and work across whatever is needed to move things forward.
- Apply AI tools deliberately and appropriately; understand the code you write, apply sound engineering practices, and not rely on AI as a substitute for technical judgement.
- All code, including generated output, is subject to full code review; actively increase automated test coverage across the codebase.
- Importantly, monitor, debug, and improve system performance and reliability.
- AI‑Augmented Engineering
We use LLMs and modern AI tooling to accelerate development, automate workflows, and enhance product capabilities.
You will have access to shared team AI tooling, including a Claude Team subscription, and are expected to incorporate these tools effectively into your workflow.
Engineering Quality and Delivery
This is not a ticket‑driven role.
You are expected to take ownership of problems end‑to‑end rather than just implementing predefined tasks.
Write maintainable, production‑grade Type Script across the stack and ship continuously via CI/CD using tools such as Git Hub Actions.
Qualifications
- Familiar with modern AI tooling in a development workflow.
- Strong Type Script/Java Script skills across frontend and backend.
- Experience with Vue or similar frameworks, Node. js, and cloud or serverless systems.
- Comfortable owning systems end‑to‑end.
- Experience integrating third‑party APIs and working with webhooks.
- Experience with Firebase or Google Cloud.
- Experience with workflow automation tools such as n8n.
- Background in startups or high‑velocity teams.
- Experience shipping mobile apps using React Native (Expo) or similar.
- Strong product intuition and a bias for simplification.
- 7 or more years building production web applications.
