About the Role
We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer to join our growing team, working across the full development lifecycle—from architecture and design through to deployment and support. You’ll be building modern, scalable applications using React on the frontend and Python (Django/FastAPI/Flask – depending on the stack) on the backend.

Contribute to architecture decisions and influence tech stack evolution
Participate in code reviews and mentor junior developers
Work with CI/CD pipelines and cloud services (e.g., AWS, GCP, or Azure)
Take ownership of features from concept to production

About You
4+ years’ professional experience as a full stack engineer (or frontend/backend with full stack exposure)
Proficient in React, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML/CSS
Strong backend experience in Python – ideally with Django, FastAPI, or Flask
Familiar with REST APIs, SQL/NoSQL databases, and cloud infrastructure
Comfortable in a collaborative and agile environment
Strong communication skills and a pragmatic, problem-solving mindset

Bonus Points
Experience with containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
Knowledge of testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, PyTest)
Familiarity with DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines
Experience with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
