Senior Full-Stack Engineer

About the Position

We are seeking a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with expertise in Python, TypeScript, and cloud-native systems to join our engineering team. This role is full-time and based in Panama City, Florida, United States, or Bucharest, Romania.

Responsibilities

• End-to-end ownership of complex, production-facing features with a backend-leaning skillset - data models, APIs, and the infrastructure they run on, not just UI.
• Implementing safe migration patterns for legacy or high-risk systems - e.g., shadow-testing/dual-write layers that validate new logic against live production traffic before cutover, rather than big-bang rewrites.
• Ensuring reversibility by construction for destructive or bulk operations - undoable-command or versioned-transaction models with a true inverse operation, not a confirm dialogue bolted on after the fact.
• Setting technical direction and raising the bar for code quality on a squad, including in situations with no peer to check your judgment against.
• Potential to lead a squad directly, including standing up intake/triage/routing from zero and taking on forward-deployed customer-facing duties.

Requirements

• Strong proficiency in Python and experience building production backend services.
• Experience building and maintaining TypeScript-based applications and comfortable working across backend and frontend boundaries.
• Solid understanding of REST APIs, PostgreSQL, and data modeling.
• Experience with Docker and containerized applications; familiarity with Kubernetes is a plus.
• Experience building and operating cloud-native, production-grade distributed systems.
• Comfortable owning system design and shipping to production without support, including on squads running solo with no ramp-up runway.
• Has concretely built a shadow-test/dual-write migration path or a reversible-operations model for destructive actions before - not just read about the patterns.
• Backend-leaning specifically, to correct the program's existing front-end skew.
• Prior experience leading a team or owning technical direction solo is a strong plus, given the possibility of squad leadership.

• Management style based on openness and trust
• Stable support in personal education and growth
• Worthy compensation
• Active community with regular knowledge sharing
