Mid Fullstack Engineer
Overview
We're looking for a Mid Full Stack Engineer who builds end-to-end features across our Next.js frontend and Node.js backend — and uses AI tools daily to ship faster. You'll work in a modern TypeScript monorepo powering an AI-enabled platform, contributing to both the product and the AI agent infrastructure behind it. This isn't an ML research role — it's a hands-on engineering role where AI is part of your daily workflow and the product you're building.
Key Responsibilities
Build and ship full-stack features end-to-end in a TypeScript/Next.js/React monorepo
Develop and maintain backend services using Node.js, Hono, and Express
Work with Prisma ORM and PostgreSQL (with pgvector) and MongoDB via Mongoose
Contribute to AI agent workflows built on Mastra and the Vercel AI SDK
Use AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude, Copilot) daily to accelerate development
Deploy and maintain services on GCP Cloud Run with Terraform
Improve observability using Datadog APM/RUM and OpenTelemetry
Collaborate with product, design, and engineering in an agile environment
Write clean, testable code and participate in code reviews
Required Qualifications
Engineering (2–4 years commercial experience):
Strong TypeScript and JavaScript fundamentals
Hands-on experience with React and Next.js (App Router)
Backend experience with Node.js (Express, Hono, or similar)
Working knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL) and an ORM (Prisma preferred)
Familiarity with REST APIs and basic cloud infrastructure concepts
Understanding of Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and code quality tools (ESLint, Prettier)
Comfortable working in a monorepo (Turborepo experience is a plus)
AI Mindset & Tooling:
Regularly uses AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude, GitHub Copilot)
Curious about LLM integrations and AI SDK patterns — willing to learn Mastra and Vercel AI SDK
Uses AI for real productivity gains, not just experimentation
Product & Collaboration:
Understands the "why" behind features, not just the "how"
Comfortable working closely with product and design stakeholders
Good English communication skills (written and spoken)
Nice-to-Have
Experience with Mastra or similar AI agent frameworks
Familiarity with GCP (Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Artifact Registry)
Terraform or other IaC experience
MongoDB/Mongoose experience
Tailwind CSS and Radix UI / shadcn component libraries
Experience with Clerk authentication
Exposure to observability stacks (Datadog, Langfuse, OpenTelemetry)
Familiarity with Docker and containerized deployments
