Full-Stack Engineer
Job description
About the role
The role centers on the AI-powered visual IDE, driving solutions for designers and developers. The position spans frontend and backend work within a cross-functional team.
Software engineers turn product ideas into working code. Engineers work in small teams, review each other's work, and ship in small batches. Most teams follow agile practices such as sprints and daily standups. Engineers also write tests, fix bugs, and improve performance. The field values clear communication as much as technical skill. Engineers spend part of every week on planning, code review, and debugging, not just writing new code. The ability to explain a technical decision in plain words separates strong engineers from the rest.
Key facts
What you'll do
The user interface of the visual IDE is shaped to optimize performance and scalability.
High standards for graphics and brand consistency are applied to production outputs.
Requirements
A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field or equivalent practical experience is required.
At least 2+ years of experience as a full-stack developer is required.
Strong proficiency in TypeScript and modern React development (HTML/CSS/JS fundamentals) is required.
Experience with Tailwind CSS and building responsive, adaptive interfaces is required.
Working experience with Supabase (Postgres/Auth/Storage) and Supabase Edge Functions is required.
Experience building and documenting APIs, including using OpenAPI/Swagger or similar tools, is required.
Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and comfort shipping production code are required.
Clear communication and collaboration with designers, PMs, and engineers are required.
Fluent English (written and spoken) is required.
Practical notes
Work is remote based in Brazil.
Typical interview steps
Hiring for engineering roles usually starts with a recruiter screen, followed by one or two technical rounds. Candidates often solve a coding problem, discuss past projects, and answer system design questions. Some loops include a take-home task. Final rounds typically cover team fit and give candidates a chance to ask questions. Interviewers look for how you break down an unfamiliar problem, not just whether you reach the answer. Practicing a few problems aloud and reviewing your own past projects are the best preparation.
Good to know
Modern web development relies heavily on TypeScript and React fundamentals.
Component-driven UI patterns help teams deliver consistent interfaces quickly.
REST and RPC API design influence integration quality and developer experience.
Version control and documentation practices support long-term maintainability.
Remote teams depend on clear asynchronous communication and scheduled presence windows.
Visual IDE platforms require attention to performance, scalability, and graphic fidelity.
Questions to ask
Good questions to ask the employer in the interview: what does success look like in the first six months, how is the team structured, what is the current biggest challenge, and how are decisions made. Asking about growth paths and the review process is also well received. Employers expect questions, and good ones show preparation.
Career growth
Engineering careers usually progress from individual contributor to senior, staff, and principal levels. Some engineers move into management and lead teams of five to twenty people. Others stay on the technical track. Growth follows demonstrated impact, not tenure alone. A typical engineering ladder has clear levels with defined expectations for scope, quality, and mentorship. Moving up usually requires owning outcomes end to end rather than completing assigned tickets.
