📋 Description

• Build full-stack product features using Angular/React and Java/Node.js. • Think security-first: auth, permissions, input validation, secrets, dependencies, OWASP risks, and safe AI usage. • Own work end to end: UI, APIs, data flows, testing, releases, and fixes. • Build interfaces that feel clean, fast, and intuitive, not just technically correct. • Use AI tools, coding agents, MCPs, and automation to move faster. • Experiment with workflows for coding, debugging, refactoring, testing, documentation, and code review. • Connect AI tools to real systems through MCPs, APIs, internal tools, and automations. • Review both human-written and AI-generated code with sharp judgment. • Bring energy, ideas, and momentum to a small team building real product.

🎯 Requirements

• 2-5 years of hands-on software engineering experience. • Good with TypeScript/JavaScript, APIs, databases, Git, and modern web apps. • Strong sense of UI/UX and care about how the product feels, not just how the code works. • Fluent with modern AI dev tools and willing to keep experimenting as the tooling evolves. • Experience or strong interest in AI agents, MCP servers, tool calling, and AI-assisted workflows. • Able to guide AI, write solid prompts, validate output, and avoid leaking sensitive data. • Solid understanding of OWASP basics, cloud security, Docker, CI/CD, and vulnerability scanning. • Product-minded, security-aware, and comfortable moving without perfect instructions. • Startup energy: ownership, speed, curiosity, and no “that’s not my job” attitude.

🏖️ Benefits

• Remote work • Competitive pay • Real ownership • Space to experiment • A small team that cares about building good products without corporate theater.
