About The Role We are seeking a Senior Full‑Stack Application Developer to play a key, hands‑on role in our microservices and domain‑driven modernization journey. This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who combines strong frontend craftsmanship with backend and distributed systems thinking and has implemented modern cloud‑native architectures. You will design, build, and evolve scalable, event‑driven, multi‑tenant SaaS applications used across multiple brands in the healthcare and fitness technology space. You will work end‑to‑end, from React‑based user experiences to secure APIs and microservices built with Node.js and Java (Spring Boot) while collaborating closely with product, architecture, DevOps, and data teams. This role requires direct implementation experience, an ownership mindset, and the ability to work effectively in an environment where systems are actively transitioning from monolithic patterns to domain‑aligned microservices. Key Responsibilities Full‑Stack Application Development: Design, develop, and maintain production‑grade full‑stack applications using React, Node.js, and Java/Spring Boot; build modular, reusable frontend components aligned with design systems, accessibility standards, and responsive UX best practices; develop secure, scalable RESTful and event‑driven APIs ensuring performance, reliability, and backward compatibility. Microservices, DDD & Event‑Driven Systems: Implement microservices aligned to business domains and bounded contexts; contribute to domain‑driven design (DDD) discussions and translate domain models into working services; design and implement event‑driven workflows using messaging or streaming platforms (e.g., Kafka, Kinesis, SNS/SQS); apply patterns such as idempotency, event versioning, and eventual consistency; implement and integrate modern authentication and authorization solutions using OAuth2, OpenID Connect (OIDC), and JWT; work hands‑on with identity platforms such as Auth0 and or FusionAuth; design role‑based and permission‑based access controls suitable for multi‑tenant SaaS environments; build and deploy services using Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS; own services throughout their lifecycle: CI/CD, deployment, monitoring, and production support; use infrastructure‑as‑code and automated pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Terraform/CloudFormation); implement logging, monitoring, and alerting using tools such as Datadog, ELK, or Splunk; write clean, testable, and maintainable code with appropriate unit, integration, and contract testing; participate in code reviews, architecture reviews, and technical decision‑making; collaborate cross‑functionally with Product, UX, QA, and Platform teams in an Agile environment; mentor junior engineers and help raise overall engineering standards. AI‑Augmented Development: Leverage AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT, internal AI tools) to improve productivity, code quality, and learning; apply engineering judgment to validate, refactor, and test AI‑assisted outputs; use AI responsibly for tasks such as scaffolding, refactoring, test generation, and documentation, and not as a substitute for engineering fundamentals. Required Qualifications & Experience Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. 5+ years of hands‑on full‑stack development experience in production environments. Strong experience with React, including Hooks, Context, and component‑driven architecture. Proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3/SASS, and modern frontend tooling. Hands‑on experience building API‑first microservices using Java (Spring Boot), Node.js, and/or Python (FastAPI), with a strong emphasis on contract‑first design (OpenAPI), backward compatibility, and service evolution. Practical experience with microservices architectures, including service decomposition and inter‑service communication. Strong understanding of REST, OAuth2, OIDC, JWT, and API gateway patterns. Experience with Docker and Kubernetes in real production systems. Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and CI/CD pipelines. Working knowledge of relational and NoSQL data stores (e.g., MySQL, Redis, MongoDB, DynamoDB). Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability in distributed systems.
