Senior Fullstack Developer (MERN) — Team Lead

Experience: 7+ years

Work Mode: Work from Office / Hybrid — US shift, 5 days/week

Budget: Open (market-competitive, to be finalized based on candidate quality)

About the RoleWe’re hiring a Senior Fullstack Developer (MERN) who can own projects end-to-end — from client discovery through architecture, development, team leadership, and production launch. This is a hybrid IC + leadership role: you’ll write and review code, lead a small team, interface directly with US-based clients, and drive AI-augmented development practices across the team.

Key ResponsibilitiesTechnical Ownership

- Own full project lifecycle: requirement gathering → architecture → development → deployment → post-launch support
- Design scalable system architecture for MERN-based applications (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js)
- Make key technical decisions on stack, infrastructure, and integrations
- Conduct code reviews, enforce coding standards, and ensure technical debt stays manageable
- Troubleshoot complex production issues and lead root-cause resolution

Team Leadership

- Lead and mentor a team of 3–8 developers (fullstack/frontend/backend)
- Plan sprints, distribute tasks, and track delivery against timelines
- Conduct 1:1s, performance feedback, and technical upskilling for the team
- Act as the technical point of escalation for the team

Client & Stakeholder Management

- Lead client discovery calls — translate business requirements into technical scope
- Prepare and own client-facing documentation: SOWs, technical specs, architecture diagrams, project status reports
- Manage client communication independently during US working hours
- Handle scope discussions, timeline negotiations,



and expectation management

Product Delivery

- Drive products from concept to live launch, including go-live checklists, deployment pipelines, and rollback plans
- Own post-launch monitoring, performance optimization, and iteration cycles

AI-Driven Efficiency

- Actively use AI tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.) to accelerate development, code review, testing, and documentation
- Build/streamline internal workflows using AI to improve team velocity
- Evaluate and introduce new AI tooling where it improves delivery speed or quality

Required Skills
1. Frontend: React.js (advanced), Redux/Context API, TypeScript, HTML5/CSS3, responsive design, performance optimization
2. Backend: Node.js, Express.js, RESTful API & GraphQL design, microservices architecture
3. Database: MongoDB (schema design, aggregation, indexing/performance tuning), Redis (caching)
4. Cloud & DevOps: AWS/Azure/GCP, Docker, CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Jenkins), basic Kubernetes exposure
5. Architecture: System design, scalability planning, security best practices (OWASP), API gateway/load balancing concepts
6. Leadership: Sprint planning, code review ownership, mentoring, cross-functional coordination
7. Client-Facing: Requirement discovery, technical documentation (SRS, architecture docs, SOWs), client communication in a US business context
8. AI Tooling: Practical, daily use of AI coding/productivity tools — not just awareness

Nice to Have
- Next.js, Nest.js
- Experience with client billing models (T&M;, fixed bid)
- Prior experience in an agency/services workplace handling multiple client projects
- PMP/Agile certification
- Experience setting up engineering processes from scratch (0-to-1 team building)
