Job Description – Front / Backend (80/20)
ASSESSMENT REQUIRED
As a Full Stack Dev, you will be responsible for creating and influencing innovative solutions that meet demanding functional, performance, scalability, and reliability requirements. You will work as a member of a high-functioning Scrum team, playing a key role in evolving the team's technical stack to address shifting needs from a strict front-end focus to greater back-end and distributed systems expertise.
Key Responsibilities- Design, develop, and implement web applications, adhering to coding standards and building/running appropriate unit and integration tests and deployment scripts.
- Navigate writing code on both the front end in Angular, and primarily on the back end using TypeScript and Python for lambda functions.
- Work with serverless architectures, including deploying and managing code within a lambda-based environment.
- Contribute to the build-out of the back end by regularly working in sibling teams' lambda-based code bases and maintaining the team's own collection of lambdas and sub-APIs.
- Ensure high code quality by enforcing strong TypeScript and Python standards, with an emphasis on type layers
- Implement a strong test harness by achieving 100% test coverage on the front end and growing back-end coverage using TDD principles, focusing on testing output rather than implementation.
- Contribute to continual improvement by suggesting enhancements to all aspects of the product development.
Back End & Cloud Architecture- Strong experience writing code in TypeScript and Python for Lambda functions.
- Experience or deep understanding of AWS serverless architecture
- Experience with middleware or back-end implementations, such as Express middleware.
- Solid understanding of deployment and infrastructure concepts
- Working knowledge of event-driven systems and related components (e.g., Step Functions), and how multiple lambdas function as part of pipelines.
- Experience with data interaction, including interfacing with Dynamo DB, Redis, and SQS.
- Experience calling downstream HTTP APIs and an understanding of consuming GraphQL.
- Basic understanding of security concepts such as JWT/OAuth2 tokens
Front End & UI- Proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and front-end frameworks, with primary experience in Angular.
- Alternatively, strong experience in a transferable framework like React is acceptable.
Testing & Quality- Proficiency in unit testing frameworks like Jest (for FE) or Pytest/unit test (for BE).
- Experience with End-to-End (E2E) testing tools such as Playwright and Cypress.
- Demonstrated understanding of Test-Driven Development (TDD) principles.
Nice to have- Experience with AI-powered code generation or co-pilot capabilities (e.g., Claude Code)
- Experience working with large, branded websites, content management systems, E-commerce platforms, and backend frameworks is a plus.
- Familiarity with Agile concepts in an enterprise setting is a plus.
