• Full-stack engineer (React and Python)

  Remote (India)Full-timeEngineering

  • Review other engineers' changes and write down the decisions behind your own.

  What you bring

  • Several years building production web applications in React and TypeScript.
  • Solid Python on the back end, ideally with FastAPI, and a relational database such as PostgreSQL.
  • Habits that keep data safe: roles and permissions, migrations, backups and careful handling of personal data.

  • Reproduce issues customers report and turn them into clear, minimal cases for engineers.
