About The Role

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you'll become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experience of tomorrow. In this role, you will become part of a small, senior product engineering team for an established US mental health platform where clients book licensed psychologists and psychotherapists, complete with US insurance integrations and subscription billing. You will take full end-to-end ownership of product features—from frontend architecture to backend services and cloud deployment—leveraging a modern stack based on React, TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Responsibilities

End-to-End Feature Delivery: Design, implement, and deploy robust full-stack features from initial concept through production rollout
Frontend Architecture: Own and evolve the frontend architecture, including component libraries, design systems, state management, and clear module boundaries for the engineering team
Backend & API Development: Build and maintain scalable backend services and APIs (REST, GraphQL, or gRPC), covering authentication, RBAC, billing workflows, and audit logging
Code Quality & Testing: Write clean, secure, and maintainable code; establish and drive a risk-based testing strategy with strong end-to-end test coverage
Internal Tooling & AI Adoption: Develop internal productivity tooling (CLIs, agent-based workflows) and proactively utilize AI coding tools as force multipliers
Engineering Excellence & Mentorship: Conduct rigorous code reviews, champion engineering best practices, and mentor teammates in adopting modern standards
Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner closely with product management, UX/UI design, and executive leadership to shape the roadmap and guide core UX decisions

Requirements

Experience: 6+ years of commercial software engineering experience, with a proven track record of building and scaling SaaS products as a Full Stack Engineer
Communication: Upper-Intermediate to Advanced (Fluent) English proficiency, both written and spoken
Software Design & Architecture:
Demonstrated experience designing solutions for complex features and maintaining comprehensive technical documentation
Deep understanding of API architectural styles (monolith, microservices, serverless), design patterns, and engineering standards
Hands-on experience defining frontend architecture (design systems, shared component libraries) utilized by multiple developers
Proven ownership of critical product domains from discovery to launch (e.g., onboarding, billing, access control)
Software Development:
Strong proficiency in TypeScript, modern JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and advanced React patterns
Solid background in Node.js or Python building high-performance backend services; willingness and ability to work primarily in a Python / FastAPI codebase
Strong relational database skills in PostgreSQL (data modeling, schema design, complex queries, and aggregations)
Practical commercial experience with distributed systems and event-driven patterns using message brokers (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS, etc.)
Quality Assurance:
Hands-on experience with modern testing frameworks across the stack (e.g., Jest, Vitest, Playwright, Cypress, pytest)
Ability to define, track, and maintain code quality metrics; familiarity with observability, monitoring, and logging tools
DevOps & Cloud Deployment:
Practical knowledge of containerization (Docker) and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions)
Experience deploying, configuring, and operating backend services on a public cloud (GCP or AWS)
Ways of Working:
High degree of autonomy and seniority: ability to lead a problem space independently, balance technical trade-offs, and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Availability for a 3–4 hour daily working overlap with US Pacific Time (PT) for key ceremonies, planning, and stand-ups

Desirable

Prior experience as a Founding Engineer, Tech Lead, or core team member at an early-stage or growth-stage product company
Domain knowledge in HealthTech / Digital Health (HIPAA compliance, health insurance workflows) or FinTech / Payments
Production experience with Stripe billing, subscription life-cycles, and payment processing
Familiarity with Micro-frontends, Next.js, React Native, or Expo
Hands-on experience with Go, Elixir / Phoenix, or gRPC
Exposure to Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and container orchestration (Kubernetes / GKE)
Experience developing MCP servers, CLI developer tools, or LLM-assisted internal automations
Active involvement in hiring, conducting technical interviews, and mentoring junior/middle engineers
Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field
