Own work from design through deployment, iterating quickly based on customer feedback.

Travel regularly to customer sites across Europe and Asia.

What We're Looking For

At least 3 years of experience building full-stack applications or backend systems in production.

Strong TypeScript and Node.js skills, with experience designing APIs and integrating external systems.

Experience building and maintaining backend infrastructure, data pipelines, and systems that handle real-world data.

Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure and tools such as Docker, Terraform, GCP, or AWS.

Experience working directly with customers or end users to gather requirements and validate solutions.

Ability to work with autonomy, communicate clearly across technical and non-technical teams, and travel regularly.

React or another modern frontend framework is useful. Experience with LLM architectures, logistics, supply chain, or early-stage teams is also beneficial.
