Senior Full Stack Engineer

👶 About Junior

Junior is building the AI operating system for investment research.

Bootstrapped and profitable

$25M+ in revenue after growing 10x last year

60+ people across the company

23-person engineering team, growing to 40+ this year

Core stack: TypeScript, Next.js and PostgreSQL

You’d be joining early enough to shape the product, engineering culture and company, but with enough traction that everything you build lands immediately in front of demanding, paying customers.

💡 The role

You’ll own features end to end - across the frontend, backend and data layer - and ship on a weekly cadence, not a quarterly one.

You’ll:

Ship quickly, then ship again

Design and build entirely new ways of working with computers

Work on groundbreaking projects involving LLMs

Speak directly with the clients using what you build

Use those conversations to shape product decisions

Help define Junior’s engineering culture as the team doubles

🔧 Sample projects

Build frontier products capable of ingesting new types of research inputs

Build an extremely low-latency, voice-to-voice survey tool that autonomously conducts high volumes of research

Build a mobile app from scratch in three weeks

Create segmented knowledge graphs using unstructured-to-structured data transformations

Build an AI-native CRM with deep links into that knowledge graph

🔥 About you

You have 5+ years of engineering experience - we care about demonstrated competence, not pedigree

You’re genuinely strong in TypeScript, Next.js and PostgreSQL, not merely familiar with them

You can build a polished React/Next.js interface or work through a difficult TypeScript problem live and quickly, without relying on Copilot

You have solid foundations in data structures, system design and PostgreSQL

You’re high-agency and product-minded

You’ve owned projects end to end, argued for what should be built - not only how - and shipped without being handed a detailed specification

You communicate clearly and want a client-facing role

You’re based in NYC, or already committed to relocating, and excited to work with the team in person in Flatiron

You feel like you’re never building fast enough

Bonus : you’ve built and designed AI-powered products

🧭 Interview process

The process moves in days, not months:

Introductory call : background, motivation and mutual fit

Live technical screen (30-mins ): solving a TypeScript problem live in an IDE with one of our engineers. We optimize for speed and completeness over polish, and the interview is completed without AI tools

On-site Interview : a full afternoon of coding, a system-design whiteboard and a product discussion with one of our PMs

Final Cultural Round : a final conversation about how you work, what motivates you and whether Junior is the right environment for you

Offer : decisions are made collectively and quickly

🌵 Benefits

Private health insurance

Equinox gym membership

Dinner provided when working late

Team lunch provided every day at the office

Frequent international off-sites, recently including Crete and Cancún

If you’re excited to drive innovation at Junior, we’d love to hear from you!
