- Integrate AI APIs such as OpenAI or Google Gemini into the application
- Implement secure, scalable, and testable codebases
- Work autonomously with high ownership and reliability
- Deliver rapid prototypes using tools like Global or Data Button (optional)
- Participate in async communication with stakeholders and provide timely updates
Ideal Candidate
- 5+ years of full-stack development experience, ideally with startups or MVP-stage products
- Expert in React, Next.js, and TypeScript
- Strong backend experience, particularly with PostgreSQL (bonus if you also know MongoDB)
- Proven experience working with AI APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Gemini)
- Solid understanding of responsive web design and cross-device compatibility
- Familiar with rapid development and iteration cycles
- Able to work independently, self-manage priorities, and hit deadlines
- Excellent English communication skills, both written and spoken
- Comfortable working across time zones with at least 4–6 hours of overlap with EST
