Candidates should be comfortable using AI copilots (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Tabnine, Codeium) to accelerate tasks such as generating code snippets, drafting tests and documentation, and prototyping solutionswhile critically reviewing outputs for correctness, security, and licensing. Familiarity with basic prompt-engineering and integrating these tools into a disciplined development workflow is expected.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and maintain robust full-stack applications using MongoDB, Nest.js, React.js, and Node.js.
- Actively leverage AI tools (examples: GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Tabnine, Codeium) for faster development, documentation, and writing test cases. Expected familiarity: routinely use these assistants to draft code, generate tests and docs, and to iterate on prompts, while validating and adapting generated outputs before merging to main branches.
- Write and maintain unit, integration, and end-to-end tests to ensure code quality.
- Own features end-to-end94from design to deployment using modern CI/CD workflows (examples: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI; deployments via Vercel, Netlify, AWS). Expected familiarity: author and maintain CI/CD pipelines, configure environment variables/secrets, implement staging and production deployments, and perform basic rollback and troubleshooting steps.
- Collaborate with product, data, and hardware teams in a lean setup to ship fast and iterate often.
- Ensure performance, responsiveness, and scalability of front-end and backend systems.
Qualifications & Skills
- Experience: 296 5 years of professional experience building products using the MERN stack.
- Education: Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

- Familiarity with CI/CD tools (examples: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI), Git workflows (branching, PRs, code reviews), and cloud deployments (Vercel, Netlify, AWS). Expected familiarity: able to author simple pipelines, configure secrets/environment variables, set up staging and production deployments, and troubleshoot common deployment failures.
- Experience with automated testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha, Cypress, etc.).
- Demonstrated use of AI-based coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Tabnine) in real-world development workflowscomfortable crafting prompts, using generated code as a starting point for implementations or tests, and validating outputs for correctness, security, and licensing considerations.
Soft Skills
- Strong communication skills: able to explain technical decisions clearly to cross-functional teams.
- Ownership mindset: takes responsibility for features from design through to production and monitoring.
- Collaboration and mentorship: works well in small teams, provides constructive feedback, and helps junior engineers grow.
- Problem-solving and adaptability: able to break down ambiguous problems and iterate quickly in a lean environment.
Good To Have
- Exposure to IoT systems or integration with hardware devices.
- Experience working with LoRaWAN protocols and sensor data ingestion.
- Familiarity with WebSockets, MQTT, or real-time data processing.
