What you will be doing
- Transform Ideas into Impact: Shepherd features from concept to completion by clarifying ambiguous requirements, architecting scalable solutions, implementing robust full-stack code, and deploying production-ready systems

- Creating technical complexity for its own sake or chasing the latest framework without purpose
- Implementing specifications without questioning assumptions or understanding the underlying user needs
- Drowning in bureaucracy or endless planning sessions that delay actual problem-solving
- Simply checking off feature lists without measuring real-world impact and outcomes
Key responsibilities
- Harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to develop intuitive, high-performance software that addresses genuine user challenges, delivers rapid value, and maintains long-term technical integrity
Candidate requirements
- Proven track record with 4+ years building production-grade web applications across both frontend and backend domains (framework-agnostic)
- Demonstrated ownership mindset: History of successfully leading complete features, modules, or teams rather than just contributing isolated components
