## About the role

We're looking for a senior full-stack engineer who lives in TypeScript. You write clean, well-typed, well-tested TypeScript on both sides of the stack — React and Next.js on the front end, Node.js services and APIs on the back end — and you deploy and operate what you build on Google Cloud or AWS. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 5 years writing production TypeScript/JavaScript as your primary language
- Expert-level TypeScript: advanced types and generics, strict-mode codebases, type-safe API contracts, and a strong grasp of the JavaScript runtime (event loop, async patterns, modules, gotchas)
- Deep Node.js experience: building and maintaining production HTTP APIs and back-end services with Express or a comparable framework, including auth, validation, error handling, background jobs, and performance
- Deep React expertise: component architecture, hooks, state management, data fetching, and performance optimization for complex, highly interactive, multi-user applications, CSS solutions
- Production Next.js experience: App Router, server components, server-side rendering, routing, and caching
