Full Stack Engineer
About The Position
This is a full-stack engineering role at the center of how Pickle works. You will build and ship features across the entire stack. From the React and React Native interfaces our renters and lenders use every day, to the APIs, services, background jobs, and database layers that power them. You will own product problems end to end: understanding what needs to be built, designing the technical approach, implementing it across the stack, and iterating once it's in users' hands. The domains you work in will evolve with the product. One quarter you might be building rental booking flows or marketplace payments; the next, improving the AI assistant, search infrastructure or performance across mobile and web. What stays constant is the expectation that you: Think in systems Write code other engineers can build on Care deeply about the experience we ship to users Move fast without cutting corners Keep learning in every step If you enjoy owning real product surface area and building something people actually use then this role is for you.
