Role Overview As a Senior Full Stack Software Developer, you will play a key role in designing, building, and maintaining cloud‑based software applications used by thousands of users across North America. You will work across the full technology stack—front end, back end, and infrastructure—contributing to the ongoing evolution of our Message product. This role is intentionally senior and high‑impact. You will have strong React experience and help guide frontend patterns and practices while remaining deeply hands‑on across the full stack—frontend, backend, and cloud stack. You will shape architecture, raise engineering standards, mentor teammates, and partner closely with technical leadership to execute on longer‑term architectural direction. Responsibilities Apply deep React experience to front‑end design, patterns, and best practices, while contributing across the full stack. Lead complex architectural problem‑solving across the frontend and backend, balancing short‑term delivery with long‑term maintainability. Help stabilize and evolve the system architecture by identifying technical debt, proposing improvements, and guiding implementation. Influence and uplift engineering standards through code reviews, design discussions, and hands‑on leadership. Design, develop, and maintain full‑stack applications using React, TypeScript, Java, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL. Build end‑to‑end solutions, delivering high‑quality user experiences alongside robust backend services. Work effectively within both modernized systems and legacy components as the platform continues to evolve. Develop new features, enhance existing functionality, resolve defects, and contribute to overall technical health. Build and maintain scalable, secure, and reliable services on AWS using containerized and distributed architectures. Participate fully in the software development lifecycle, including requirements, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and support. Contribute to Agile planning, estimation, and continuous improvement initiatives. Mentor and support other engineers, particularly in frontend and full‑stack development. Collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering peers to deliver customer value efficiently. Serve as a technical partner to team leadership, helping ensure architectural direction is executed effectively. Preferred Qualifications Experience working on high‑scale, customer‑facing SaaS platforms. Familiarity with Java and Scala‑based (legacy) services or distributed messaging systems. Familiarity with Angular application development (legacy). Experience mentoring junior developers or leading technical initiatives. What We Value Technical ownership: You take responsibility for solutions, outcomes, and long‑term health—not just individual tasks.
