  • Implement analytics and tracking systems to enable data-driven iteration
  • Drive full-stack architecture decisions and lead autonomous delivery of initiatives
  • Balance pragmatic rapid iteration with long-term scalability considerations

What they're looking for

  • Node.js and TypeScript
  • NestJS backend framework
  • React frontend development
  • Full-stack product engineering
  • Third-party system integration (CRMs, calendars, databases)
  • Product discovery and customer feedback synthesis
  • Analytics and metrics-driven development
  • LLM/AI integration experience (nice-to-have)
