The Role

We’re looking for a high-energy fresher who wants to ship real products, not just follow tutorials.

You’ll work across Angular / React , Java / Node.js , AI tools, agents, and MCPs to build useful, secure, good-looking software. You don’t need to know everything on day one, but you should be curious, fast to learn, and comfortable using AI to punch above your weight.

This role is for someone who can ask sharp questions, take feedback, figure things out, and keep moving without being limited by traditional technologies.

What You’ll Do

• Build product features using Angular / React and Java / Node.js .

• Use AI tools, agents, MCPs, and automation to code, debug, test, and learn faster.
• Bring energy, curiosity, and momentum to a small team building a real product.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong fundamentals in JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, APIs, databases, and Git.
• Exposure to Angular or React and Java or Node.js through projects, internships, coursework, or self-learning.
• Strong sense of UI/UX and care about how the product feels.
• Basic understanding of OWASP, cloud basics, Docker, CI/CD, or vulnerability scanning.
• Startup energy: Ownership, Speed, Curiosity, and no “that’s not my job” attitude.

Bonus Points

• You’ve built side projects, internal tools, automations, agents, or AI-powered features.
• You've won coding competitions, earned credible certifications, secured top rankings in competitive coding, etc.

What We Offer

Remote work, real product exposure, and a chill team that cares about building good things.
