The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), a proven ability to apply Design Patterns, and expertise in Low-Level Design (LLD) to architect and implement robust, scalable, and efficient full-stack solutions. This role is critical for building and maintaining high-quality, lean engineering environments that value smart development practices, quality-first thinking, and the strategic use of modern AI-assisted development tools.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

•       Design, build, and maintain robust full-stack applications leveraging MongoDB, Nest.js, React.js, and Node.js, ensuring optimal performance, scalability, and maintainability through the judicious application of efficient algorithms, established design patterns, and sound Low-Level Design (LLD) principles.

•       Take complete ownership of features from architectural design through production deployment, utilising modern CI/CD workflows including GitHub Actions, Vercel, and AWS.

•       Integrate and strategically leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT) to accelerate development velocity, improve documentation quality, and streamline test authoring.

•       Author and maintain comprehensive unit, integration, and end-to-end test suites to uphold rigorous code quality standards.

•       Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Data, and Hardware teams within an agile, lean delivery framework to drive frequent, high-quality releases.

•       Ensure consistent performance, responsiveness, and scalability across both frontend and backend systems.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS:

Educational Qualification

•       Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related engineering discipline.

Technical Skills

•       2–5 years of professional experience building production-grade applications on the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js).

•       Strong proficiency in Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), with the ability to analyse problem complexity and implement optimised solutions.

•       Demonstrable experience with various Design Patterns (e.g., MVC, Singleton, Factory, Observer) and their practical application in building scalable and maintainable software systems, coupled with a strong understanding of Low-Level Design (LLD) principles for modular and efficient code architecture.

•       Strong proficiency in frontend architecture, including React Hooks, Context API, and/or Redux.

•       Solid understanding of Node.js, Express.js, RESTful API design, and MongoDB schema design.

•       Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and cloud deployment on AWS or equivalent platforms.

•       Proficiency with automated testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha, and/or Cypress.

•       Demonstrated use of AI-assisted coding tools integrated into day-to-day development practices.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS (GOOD TO HAVE):

•       Exposure to IoT systems or prior experience with hardware device integration.

•       Experience with real-time data technologies, including WebSocket.

•       Professional background in agriculture, climate-tech, or rural technology sectors.

•       Working knowledge of TypeScript or serverless computing architectures.

KEY COMPETENCIES:

•       Strong problem-solving ability and analytical thinking, with a focus on applying Data Structures and Algorithms and Low-Level Design (LLD) principles to solve complex technical challenges efficiently and effectively.

•       High ownership mindset with the ability to drive features independently.

•       Effective cross-functional communication and collaboration skills.

•       Adaptability and willingness to work in a fast-paced, lean startup environment.
