Fullstack Platform Engineer

• Strong backend engineering experience in production environments.
• Excellent knowledge of SQL, relational databases, transactions, locking, and data modelling.
• Experience with Docker, Linux, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD.
• A good understanding of queues, scheduled jobs, APIs, networking, security, and observability.
• Confidence reasoning about concurrency, idempotency, partial failures, and recovery.
• Strong debugging skills across the full system.
• Startup experience or a strong bias toward ownership and execution.
• Good product judgment and an instinct for avoiding unnecessary complexity.
• Experience using AI coding agents to plan, implement, test, review, and document software.
• The ability to critically review, iterate on, and improve AI-generated code until it is high-quality and production-ready.

Our stack includes TypeScript, Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Docker, Linux, and Hack. Experience with every technology is not required, we care more about strong fundamentals and the ability to learn.

AI-native engineering:

Using AI agents is a requirement for this role, not an optional productivity tool.

We expect you to use them throughout the development process: exploring unfamiliar code, planning changes, implementing features, writing tests, investigating failures, reviewing work, and maintaining documentation.

This does not mean accepting generated code without understanding it. You remain responsible for architecture, security, correctness, and production outcomes. We are looking for someone who knows how to give agents useful context, break work into verifiable steps, review their output critically, and use them to increase both speed and quality.

You’ll probably enjoy this role if:

• You have worked in an early stage startup/scale-up
• You like owning systems after they go live.
• You naturally ask what happens when a process crashes halfway through.
• You can move between backend code, SQL, infrastructure, and debugging.
• You prefer simple, dependable systems over fashionable architecture.
• You are excited about developing with AI agents and actively improving how you use them.
