About The Position

We’re hiring a pragmatic, T-shaped Full-Stack Engineer to help extend and improve a mature production platform used daily by real customers. This is not a greenfield-only role. You’ll be working on top of a real, six-year-old codebase that supports mission-critical construction lending workflows. The right person has strong backend instincts, can work across the stack, and is comfortable navigating ambiguity. You should be able to reason through database design, API behavior, background jobs, migrations, performance tradeoffs, and user-facing product decisions without needing every detail handed to you in a ticket. This is a fully remote team that relies heavily on fast, clear verbal communication, so the ability to think out loud, ask good questions, and explain tradeoffs is critical.

Requirements

6+ years of professional full-stack or backend-leaning engineering experience
Experience shipping and maintaining production applications used by real customers
Strong backend depth across API design, data modeling, background jobs, and migrations
Hands-on database experience, including SQL, schema design, and query optimization
Comfort working in legacy systems and improving them incrementally
Professional experience across multiple languages, frameworks, or parts of the stack
Experience with some combination of React, TypeScript, Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Tailwind, Hotwire, React Native, or similar technologies
Ability to reason through ambiguous engineering problems and explain tradeoffs clearly
Strong verbal communication and collaboration skills in a remote environment
Curiosity about business domains outside your own expertise
