Senior Full Stack Developer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer based in United States.

The Senior Full Stack Developer will contribute to a live, feature-complete production platform, combining ongoing maintenance with new feature delivery and incremental backend improvements.

You will work primarily with Node.js, NestJS, Angular, Docker, and Docker Compose while contributing to cloud-native services deployed through Google Cloud infrastructure. Working within an established codebase and engineering team, you will follow existing development and deployment patterns while independently managing day-to-day delivery. The position offers an opportunity to make meaningful improvements to a mature product while applying modern development practices and AI-assisted engineering tools. Success will require strong technical ownership, API design expertise, attention to detail, and the ability to deliver reliably in a maintenance-focused environment.

• Deliver new features across the existing product, contributing across both backend and frontend components according to an approximately 70% backend and 30% frontend focus.
• Design, build, maintain, and incrementally improve backend services and REST APIs using Node.js and NestJS, with an emphasis on clear architecture, reliability, and maintainability.
• Contribute to frontend development using Angular, working effectively across the full technology stack to support product enhancements and maintenance needs.
• Develop and maintain containerized services using Docker and Docker Compose, following established engineering and deployment practices.
• Independently design and document APIs while maintaining strong API discipline and adhering to established codebase patterns.
• Collaborate effectively with an existing engineering team while independently organizing and managing day-to-day development priorities and delivery.
• Work within established development, testing, documentation, and deployment processes to deliver thorough, high-quality work on schedule.
• Apply AI-assisted development tools and technologies where appropriate to improve productivity, engineering workflows, and software delivery.

Requirements:

• At least 8 years of overall software development experience, with strong hands-on experience building and maintaining scalable web applications and production software.
• At least 4 years of hands-on experience with Node.js and/or NestJS, along with 3 years of Angular experience and 3 years of Docker and Docker Compose experience.
• At least 4 years of professional experience designing REST APIs, with the ability to independently create, structure, and document robust APIs.
• At least 1 year of practical experience working with AI tools, such as Claude, MCP, or LLM APIs, and comfort using AI-assisted development environments such as Claude and Cursor.
• Strong backend engineering capabilities combined with the ability to contribute effectively to frontend development and operate comfortably across the full stack.
• Experience working within an existing team and established codebase, while maintaining the autonomy and ownership required to manage day-to-day work independently.
• A thorough and quality-focused approach to maintenance, development, documentation, and delivery, with the ability to meet agreed timelines consistently.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, collaboration, and self-management skills, with the ability to follow established engineering standards and deployment processes.
• Nice-to-have experience includes 2+ years with Google Cloud Platform and Cloud Run, 2+ years with Swagger or API documentation, and 1+ year working with microservices architecture.

Benefits:

• Remote, part-time contractual position with a fixed schedule of 12:00 PM–9:30 PM IST during summer and 1:00 PM–10:30 PM IST during winter.
• No weekend work, supporting a consistent work-life balance.
• Day-one equipment and working assets, including a laptop and required work resources.
• Access to mentorship, professional community, and knowledge-sharing forums designed to support collaboration and development.
• A long-term remote work environment where individual contributions and professional growth are valued.
