**Role Overview**

We’re hiring a pragmatic full-stack engineer with strong experience in **either** **Node.js (TypeScript)** **or** **Java (Spring Boot)**. You’ll build scalable backends, clean APIs, and quality UIs—while using **AI tools daily** to speed up design, coding, testing, docs, and ops. Language-flexible mindset is important: you’re happy to pick up other languages and stacks when it helps the product.

**What You’ll Do**
- Design and ship backend services in **Node.js (TS)** **or** **Java (Spring Boot)**; craft REST/GraphQL APIs.
- Build responsive frontends (preferably **React/Next.js**) integrated with those APIs.
- Model data in **PostgreSQL/MySQL**, use **Redis** for caching; write efficient queries/migrations.
- Build async/event flows with **Kafka/RabbitMQ** when appropriate.
- Own CI/CD, containerization (**Docker**) and cloud deploys (**AWS/GCP/Azure**); IaC with **Terraform** or similar.
- Add observability (logs, metrics, traces) with **OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana**.
- Bake in security (OAuth2/OIDC/JWT, IAM, secrets, dependency health).
- Write robust tests (unit/integration/e2e) with **Jest**, **JUnit and RestAssured**.
- ** Leverage AI** to generate/refactor code, write tests, draft docs, analyze logs, and accelerate incident response.
- Participate in design reviews, break work into clear stories, and mentor peers on AI-assisted workflows.

**Required Skills & Experience**
- 1-5 years of professional engineering (or equivalent impact).
- Production experience in **one** of:

- ** Node.js (TypeScript)**, frameworks like **Express/Fastify**; or
- ** Java (Spring/Spring Boot)**.
- Strong API design, domain modeling, performance tuning.
- Solid frontend skills with **React** (or Angular/Vue) and modern tooling.
- Proficient with SQL/NoSQL, caching, and async processing.
- Knowledge of Docker, CI/CD (GitHub Actions/GitLab/Jenkins) and cloud deployments.
- Excellent debugging and incident skills; clear written communication.
- Curiosity to learn new languages/frameworks as needed.

**AI & Automation Expectations**
- Daily user of **GitHub Copilot** (or similar) and effective prompting patterns.
- Bonus: hands-on with **LLM APIs** (OpenAI/Azure/open-source), **LangChain/LlamaIndex**, RAG, and vector stores (PGVector/Pinecone/Weaviate).
- Understand data privacy/PII handling, usage governance, and prompt safety.
- Habit of measuring AI impact (lead time, MTTR, coverage, defect rate).
