We’ve recently launched a new D2C product in the LegalTech/Utilities space and are looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who’s ready to grow into a technical leadership role. You’ll be responsible for hands-on development, contributing to architectural decisions, and helping to build and guide a small engineering team as the product scales.

This role is ideal for someone who is technically sharp, highly accountable, and ready to step into more ownership and leadership over time.

If you're looking for a conventional 9 to 5 job, this may not be the right fit. But if you're ready to go the extra mile to grow, build at high speed, you are excited about technology and the opportunity to shape both the product and the team, read on.

• Take ownership of core product components from concept to deployment.

• Contribute to hiring and onboarding new team members.

• Maintain high code quality and application performance in a fast-paced, high-traffic environment.

• Set up and improve CI/CD pipelines and development workflows.

• Monitor, debug, and improve the stability and scalability of the system.

• Help shape the engineering culture as the team grows.

Core Technical Skills

• Strong expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript and modern ReactJS.

• Proven experience with Next.js for full-stack application development.

• Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and Redis, including performance tuning and schema design.

• Experience with A/B testing frameworks and using analytics to drive product decisions.

• Familiarity with CMS (preferably Payload).

Leadership & Collaboration

• Demonstrated ability to mentor other engineers and elevate team performance.

• Clear communication style, able to explain complex topics clearly and concisely.

• A proactive mindset that spots issues before they become problems and takes ownership.

• Comfortable making technical decisions and defending them with logic and data.

• Experience leading small teams or projects is a strong plus, even in an unofficial capacity.

• Experience in D2C SaaS or LegalTech/Utility products.

• Exposure to performance marketing, customer funnel optimization, or rapid MVP cycles.

• Contributions to open-source or technical blogs.

• Experience working in a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment
