Javascript Lead Engineer

About the Role

🧑‍💻 Full Stack Developer (Remote – 4–5+ Yrs Experience)

We're looking for a Full Stack Developer who can independently manage end-to-end product development with minimal guidance and deliver fast, clean MVPs.

You should be comfortable working in a lean startup environment, familiar with open-source libraries, and capable of focusing on business logic rather than reinventing the wheel.

• Authentication: Clerk or NextAuth.js – secure, easy-to-integrate authentication with social login support
• AI Development Tools: Cursor AI + GitHub Copilot – AI pair programming to speed up development

🔸 That said, if you have a strong preference for a comparable stack (e.g., React with Express, or other DBs), we're open to it — as long as you can move fast and own delivery.

✅ What We're Looking For

• 4–5+ years experience as a full stack or product-focused developer
• Strong in JavaScript / TypeScript, and comfortable with both frontend and backend
• Confident in building, testing, and deploying MVPs independently
• Experience using third-party/open-source libraries to accelerate development
• Fluent in English and comfortable working remotely with async communication
• Bonus: Experience working in early-stage startups or small agile teams

📍 Location: Remote (preferably India or similar time zone)

🕒 Engagement: Full-time

💬 Communication: English + async over Slack/Notion
