The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), a proven ability to apply Design Patterns, and expertise in Low-Level Design (LLD) to architect and implement robust, scalable, and efficient full-stack solutions. This role is critical for building and maintaining high-quality, lean engineering environments that value smart development practices, quality-first thinking, and the strategic use of modern AI-assisted development tools.
Key Responsibilities
• Design, build, and maintain robust full-stack applications leveraging MongoDB, Nest.js, React.js, and Node.js, ensuring optimal performance, scalability, and maintainability through the judicious application of efficient algorithms, established design patterns, and sound Low-Level Design (LLD) principles.
• Take complete ownership of features from architectural design through production deployment, utilising contemporary CI/CD workflows including GitHub Actions, Vercel, and AWS.
• Integrate and strategically leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT) to accelerate development velocity, improve documentation quality, and streamline test authoring.
• Author and maintain comprehensive unit, integration, and end-to-end test suites to uphold rigorous code quality standards.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Data, and Hardware teams within an agile, lean delivery framework to drive frequent, high-quality releases.
• Ensure consistent performance, responsiveness, and scalability across both frontend and backend systems. Required Qualifications & Skills Educational Qualification
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related engineering discipline. Technical Skills
• 3–5 years of professional experience building production-grade applications on the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js).
• Strong proficiency in Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), with the ability to analyse problem complexity and implement optimised solutions.
• Demonstrable experience with various Design Patterns (e.g., MVC, Singleton, Factory, Observer) and their practical application in building scalable and maintainable software systems,
coupled with a strong understanding of Low-Level Design (LLD) principles for modular and efficient code architecture.
• Strong proficiency in frontend architecture, including React Hooks, Context API, and/or Redux.
• Solid understanding of Node.js, Express.js, RESTful API design, and MongoDB schema design.
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and cloud deployment on AWS or equivalent platforms.
• Proficiency with automated testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha, and/or Cypress.
• Demonstrated use of AI-assisted coding tools integrated into day-to-day development practices. Preferred Qualifications (good To Have)
• Exposure to IoT systems or prior experience with hardware device integration.
• Experience with real-time data technologies, including WebSocket.
• Professional background in agriculture, climate-tech, or rural technology sectors.
• Working knowledge of TypeScript or serverless computing architectures. Key Competencies
• Solid problem-solving ability and analytical thinking, with a focus on applying Data Structures and Algorithms and Low-Level Design (LLD) principles to solve complex technical challenges efficiently and effectively.
• High ownership mindset with the ability to drive features independently.
• Effective cross-functional communication and collaboration skills.
• Adaptability and willingness to work in a fast-paced, lean startup setting.
• Commitment to code quality, continuous improvement, and engineering best practices. Shift Time : 9 am to 6 pm Working Days : Monday to Friday Compensation: Competitive, commensurate with market standards and experience
