Job description

Job Summary

We are looking for a highly skilled Full Stack MERN Developer who can work independently with minimal supervision. The ideal candidate is self-motivated, detail-oriented, and capable of taking full ownership of projects — from planning and architecture to deployment and maintenance. You should be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and passionate about building scalable, high-performing web applications.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain modern web applications using MongoDB, Postgres, Next.js, Express.js, React.js, and Node.js.

Translate minimum business requirements into clean, maintainable, and efficient code.

Build and consume RESTful APIs and/or GraphQL services.

Implement responsive front-end interfaces and dynamic user experiences with React and modern UI libraries (e.g., Material UI, Tailwind, ShadCN, Chakra UI).

Develop secure and optimized backend systems, authentication flows, and role-based access controls.

Integrate third-party APIs and cloud services (e.g., AWS, Firebase, Azure).

Manage databases, write efficient queries, and ensure data consistency.

Optimize applications for maximum performance and scalability.

Handle deployments, environment configurations, and CI/CD pipelines.

Debug issues across the stack and implement long-term fixes.

Collaborate with designers, product owners, and QA engineers when needed — while being capable of driving solo projects end-to-end.

Requirements

3+ years of professional experience as a Full Stack Developer using the MERN stack.

Solid understanding of Node.js, Express, and backend architecture.

Experience with MongoDB (and familiarity with Mongoose ORM).

Proficient in REST API design, error handling, and authentication (JWT, OAuth2).

Hands-on experience with Git, version control, and branching strategies.

Familiar with Docker, CI/CD, and cloud deployment (AWS, Vercel, Render, etc.).

Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.

Ability to work independently, meet deadlines, and communicate clearly.

Experience with TypeScript is a plus.

Understanding of Agile/Scrum development processes.

Preferred Experience

Experience with Next.js, Redux Toolkit, or RTK Query.

Familiarity with microservices or serverless architecture.

UI/UX sensitivity and ability to convert Figma or design mockups to pixel-perfect interfaces.

Knowledge of unit testing and API testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha, Postman).

Prior experience in multi-tenant systems or SaaS platforms is a plus.
