Full Stack Engineer

Job description

**Our Client** They're building the back-office of the future for millions of small businesses: accounting, taxes, payroll, financing (all powered by cutting-edge AI and a team of advisors who truly understand what matters to clients). **They're early. They move fast. And they're looking for someone who thrives in that environment, not despite it.** **Your mission** Your job isn't just to write code, it's to **solve problems**. That means asking the hard questions before touching a keyboard, understanding the why behind every request, cutting scope ruthlessly when needed, and shipping things that actually move the needle. You'll work across the **full stack**, back-end services, front-end dashboards, automations, AI pipelines; and you'll **own features end-to-end** (from understanding the problem, to scoping the solution, to deploying and iterating). **They want someone who questions before building, and knows when the best solution is a simpler one.** ### What you’ll do ● **Own problems, not just tickets**: you'll push back when something isn't worth building, and move fast when it is. ● **Build and maintain back-end services** in Python (FastAPI, Pydantic), with a strong focus on reliability and maintainability. ● **Design and automate complex workflows:** document processing, email handling, third-party API integrations and OCR (using tools like n8n, LangChain, MCP, and similar). ● **Build front-end interfaces:** dashboards, internal tools, chat experiences that are fast, clear, and genuinely useful (React). ● Own **deployment and monitoring** end-to-end. ### What they’re looking for ● Solid production experience with **Python** (FastAPI, Pydantic, Pandas) or **Node.Js** and **JavaScript/TypeScript** (**React and Next**), you've shipped real things that real people use. ● Comfortable owning both **front-end and back-end** without needing to split the work. ● Experience with **deployment, infrastructure, and monitoring**, you don't throw things over the wall. ● **Strong product instinct:** you think about users and outcomes, not just systems and tasks. ● **Intellectual honesty:** you push back on bad ideas (including your own), and you'd rather solve the right problem simply than the wrong one perfectly. ● **At ease with ambiguity:** you can go from a vague problem to a shipped solution without someone holding your hand every step of the way. ### How they work ● **Real problem, real users:** You won't be building in a vacuum. You'll work closely with the accountants, advisors, and small business owners who use what you ship — understanding their pain firsthand, and turning it into solutions that actually work for them. These are people running real businesses, and getting it right matters. ● **Flexibility & hybrid work**: They believe in ownership and responsibility over schedules. They trust people to manage their time and deliver results. They also value working side by side: they enjoy being together in the office to collaborate, think, and build as a team. ● **Tools & setup:** AI-first tools and workflows, latest-generation hardware, and everything you need to work faster and better. If a tool helps you move quicker or think clearer, they want you to have it. ● **Growth & development:** You’ll have a dedicated training budget to invest in whatever helps you grow. They’re clear about where they are and where they’re going as a company, and you’ll have periodic performance reviews to support your development and career progression. ● **Compensation:** They believe in a meritocratic culture: your impact and results directly shape your growth and progression. They also offer flexible compensation (transport, restaurants, and other benefits) to make your day-to-day easier.
