Senior Full Stack Developer

We’ve got the brains of a security powerhouse, the soul of a startup, and the swagger of a dev team that refuses to ship tech debt.

Not exactly a secret society… but close. What we are is relentlessly security-obsessed and on a mission to build smart, seamless, automated cloud compliance. Forget spreadsheets, chaos, and audit nightmares — we make risk and security feel like magic. And now, we’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer to join the crew.

What you bring

• 5+ years Node.js & 5+ years React experience
• Strong experience building microservices in production
• Solid understanding of relational and non-relational databases
• Proven ability building and integrating REST APIs
• Hands-on exposure to AWS or similar cloud platforms
• Ability to mentor, guide, and lead technical initiatives
• Strong communicator with excellent English (written & verbal)
• Bonus points for Docker / Kubernetes experience

What You’ll Do

• Design and Build: Develop Scytale’s cloud-based platform using AWS, microservices, and containerized tech
• Architect: Take part in high-level design, research, and planning for scalable and robust software
• Create End-to-End: Implement backend logic, craft intuitive frontends, and integrate with third-party APIs
• Collaborate: Work with customers, stakeholders, and cross-functional teams to deliver a seamless platform
• Lead: Mentor junior devs and drive best practices, standards, and knowledge sharing
• Optimize: Continuously push for efficiency, scalability, and maintainability across the platform
