Why This Role Exists
We’re looking for a Lead Full Stack Engineer who’s equally fluent in modern web development and the emerging AI/ML ecosystem. This role exists to own architecture, performance, and innovation across the stack — from React and Next.js to AWS, AI pipelines, and scalable backend infrastructure.
You will lead a high-performing engineering team, set technical direction, and bring cutting-edge technologies (AI agents, vector databases, LLM integrations, and ML-powered features) into production-grade applications.
What You’ll Actually Do
Define and drive the end-to-end technical vision across web, mobile, and AI systems
Make architectural decisions balancing speed, scalability, and innovation
Evaluate and integrate AI-driven frameworks, vector databases, and real-time inference APIs
Lead development of web and mobile applications using React, Next.js, Astro, React Native, and Node.js
Build intelligent features using LangChain, OpenAI/Gemini APIs, Hugging Face models, or custom ML pipelines
Collaborate with AI/ML engineers to integrate model outputs into user-facing applications
Architect and deploy scalable systems using AWS (Lambda, EC2, ECS, S3, API Gateway, EventBridge)
Implement CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/CDK), and observability best practices
Optimize infrastructure for cost, latency, and high availability
Design and manage REST and GraphQL APIs, integrating with AI inference services
Manage hybrid data architectures including PostgreSQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB, and vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate)
Build event-driven and data-streaming systems (Kafka, EventBridge)
Collaborate with Product, Design, and AI teams to translate ideas into production solutions
Mentor engineers on modern frameworks, clean code practices, and AI tool adoption
Stay updated on AI trends including agents, multimodal systems, RAG, and autonomous workflows
Prototype and productionize AI-driven features for internal and customer-facing products
Drive developer productivity, system maintainability, and security
Requirements (Core)
5+ years of full-stack development experience with at least 2+ years in technical leadership or architecture roles
Strong expertise in React, Node.js, Next.js, and React Native
Deep experience with AWS cloud services, CI/CD pipelines, and modern DevOps practices
Strong understanding of SQL and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, MongoDB) and distributed systems
Familiarity with LLMs, LangChain, vector databases, AI APIs, and ML-powered workflows
Strong problem-solving, system design, and leadership capabilities
Excellent communication skills to align technical and business stakeholders
Experience working in agile, fast-paced environments
Good to Have
Experience with TypeScript, GraphQL, Tailwind CSS, and Storyblok or similar headless CMS
Knowledge of Docker, Kubernetes, serverless frameworks, and observability tools
Exposure to AI orchestration frameworks such as CrewAI, LangGraph, and Dust
Familiarity with testing frameworks, performance tuning, and MLOps pipelines
Hands-on experience with AI-driven analytics dashboards or automated code assistants
What Strong Candidates Do Well
Drive technical vision and make impactful architectural decisions
Build scalable, high-performance full-stack and AI-powered systems
Lead and mentor teams effectively while fostering innovation
Solve complex system design and performance challenges
Stay ahead of emerging trends in AI/ML and apply them practically
Balance speed, quality, and scalability in a fast-paced environment
What You’ll Get
Opportunity to lead cutting-edge full stack and AI-driven product development
Exposure to modern technologies across web, mobile, cloud, and AI ecosystems
Ownership of architecture, technical direction, and innovation
A high-performance environment focused on speed, experimentation, and excellence
Who This Role May Not Be the Best Fit For
Candidates with less than 4 years of full stack experience or without leadership exposure
Those not comfortable working across both engineering and AI/ML domains
Those who prefer purely execution-focused roles without ownership of architecture
Those not interested in fast-paced, high-ownership environments
Educational Qualifications
We care more about the quality of your work and thinking than specific degrees. A strong track record in similar roles matters most.
Our Hiring Process
We aim to complete the entire process within 5 days, depending on everyone's availability. We prefer in-person discussions as much as possible to get to know each other better and ensure a mutual fit.
