Full Stack Developer

About the Company

We're supporting a small, founder-led software company in the Austin area that is looking to add a Full Stack Engineer to its growing team. The company has an established product, active customers, and investor support behind its growth plans. The technical co-founder currently owns a significant portion of the development workload, and this hire will play a critical role in helping scale engineering capacity while taking ownership of new features and product enhancements. This is not a role where you'll spend your days navigating layers of management, process, or operational support work. The core platform is already built, and the focus is on building, improving, and expanding product functionality alongside a small team of highly experienced engineers. If you enjoy startup environments, autonomy, and having a direct impact on the product roadmap, this could be an excellent fit.
