Full-Stack (MERN + DevOps)

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re building a next-generation financial technology platform from the ground up. As our Founding Engineer, you will own core product architecture across backend, frontend, and DevOps. This is not “just another developer” role — you will shape the technical direction, build for scale, and help define the product vision alongside the founders.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Build, deploy, and maintain an end-to-end MERN application (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js).

• Architect scalable APIs, authentication/authorization flows, and data pipelines for financial analytics.

• Stand up CI/CD, staging environments, and containerized deployments (Docker/Kubernetes).

• Collaborate with founders on product design, technical roadmap, and customer requirements.

• Integrate securely with banking APIs, payment processors, and financial data sources.

• Implement observability, monitoring, and error tracking (Grafana, Prometheus, or similar).

• Establish coding standards, best practices, and documentation as the team grows.

• Contribute to long-term technical vision (frameworks, cloud providers, architecture patterns).

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR — REQUIRED

• 4+ years of full-stack development with strong MERN proficiency.

• Deep knowledge of Node.js, Express.js, and REST/GraphQL API design.

• Frontend experience with React Native (Hooks, Context API, or Redux).

• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, and modern CSS frameworks.

• Experience managing and optimizing MongoDB or similar NoSQL databases.

• Familiarity with DevOps workflows — CI/CD, Docker, and a major cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure).

• Knowledge of authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth2, SSO).

• Product-minded builder who ships usable, reliable software quickly.

PREFERRED

• FinTech/payments experience or financial data integrations.

• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi) and container orchestration experience.

• Knowledge of security/compliance (SOC 2, PCI DSS).

• Hands-on production monitoring/analytics setup.

• Early-stage startup experience and comfort wearing multiple hats.

WHY JOIN

• High ownership and autonomy from day one.

• Direct impact on product, architecture, and engineering culture.

• Opportunity to grow into a technical leadership role.
