About the role

We are seeking a dynamic, self-driven Full-Stack Engineer (Contractor) . We're building the first-mile operations platform for a global food producer: a suit of applications that farm and logistic teams act from. You'll take working prototypes into production, integrating against an API owned by a separate team, and crafting them so that they’re highly reliable and easy to use. In this role, you will work alongside a Project Manager, Product Designer, Lead Engineer, and the partner’s operations and IT teams.

What they're looking for

  • AI-assisted development: You use AI coding tools and know where they save time and where their output needs checking. We use Claude Code, and we expect to learn from how you work with it
  • Infrastructure ownership: You've handled deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, auth, and secrets management yourself, without a platform team to lean on
  • Real-time systems: you have experience shipping user-facing product built on live or near-real-time data, and you can explain the trade-offs (latency, consistency, cost) to non-technical people
