Job Description
Senior Fullstack Engineer | Hybrid, New York City | $200,000-$230,000
\n
\n
Backend depth. Front-end craft. Real ownership.
\n
\n
A growth-stage consumer tech company in New York is rebuilding its core platform, and we’re helping them find a senior engineer who wants a hand in shaping it. This isn’t a role where you pick up tickets and hand them off. You’ll steer technical decisions, build features that customers use every day, and make the people around you better.
\n
\n
The team is lean, so your work will be visible. You’ll move between server-side systems and interactive, content-rich web experiences, and you’ll bring strong backend instincts to both.
\n
\n
What the work looks like
\n
\n
- \n
- Build and evolve features spanning APIs, data layers, and a modern JavaScript front end
- Take larger initiatives from first sketch to production, including data modeling, service design, and the interface people see
- Influence your squad’s technical direction and set the standard for how things get built
- Work closely with product managers, designers, and analysts to ship in small steps, measure impact, and keep improving
- Hold a high bar for performance, readability, and testability
- Coach less experienced engineers and share what you know
- Make practical calls that keep the team shipping without sacrificing quality

- Hands-on experience with React, Next.js, or a comparable framework (any modern one counts)
- Sound judgment on API design, system architecture, and schema design, whether SQL or NoSQL
- Comfort working in AWS, GCP, or a similar cloud, with Docker and Kubernetes in your toolkit
- A disciplined approach to automated testing, CI/CD, and sensible design patterns
- The ability to weigh speed against correctness and explain your reasoning
- Clear communication, a team-first attitude, and a habit of taking initiative
