practices, and tooling decisions. This is a rare opportunity to join early and lead the growth of an

established SaaS platform, with potential to grow into senior technical leadership as we scale.

We're seeking a junior-level Full-Stack Developer with a passion for AI/LLM integration to

enhance our analytics platform with intelligent features. You'll work on implementing AI-powered

insights, natural language interfaces, and automated reporting capabilities while maintaining our

Full-Stack Development

  • Maintain and enhance our React.js SPA with modern hooks and component patterns
  • Optimize webpack configuration and code-splitting strategies for performance
  • Build RESTful APIs and GraphQL endpoints for AI feature integration
  • Manage state effectively across our chunked architecture
  • Ensure seamless integration with existing services (Stripe, MongoDB, Firebase)

Technical Architecture

  • Design scalable solutions for AI feature deployment and monitoring
  • Optimize application performance while adding AI capabilities
  • Maintain security best practices for API key management and user data
  • Contribute to CI/CD pipelines for AI model updates and feature releases
  • Work with and enhance current MongoDB structure

Required Qualifications

  • 3-5 years of full-stack development experience
  • Strong proficiency in React.js, MongoDB, and Firebase, including hooks, context,

and modern patterns

  • Experience with Node.js/Express or similar backend frameworks
  • Hands-on experience integrating LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, etc.)
  • Understanding of prompt engineering and LLM behavior patterns
  • Familiarity with webpack, code splitting, and SPA optimization
  • Experience with RESTful API design and implementation

Additional Skills

  • Proficiency with Git and collaborative development workflows
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
  • Understanding of marketing metrics and analytics (preferred)
  • Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with data visualization libraries (D3.js, Chart.js)
  • Experience with payment processing (Stripe) integration
  • Background in digital marketing or analytics platforms
  • Contributions to open-source AI/ML projects
