Role Overview 

The Senior Full-Stack Engineer will lead a core product domain and run it end to end. This is not an extra-pair-of-hands role. As we expand across regions locally and globally, the application surface grows quickly, including provisioning, admin and operational portals, call-record handling, and reporting. You will guide one of these domains, shape its architecture, and ship it.

Key Responsibilities

• Build backend services and APIs with clean, well-tested, well-documented code.
• Develop frontend experiences for operational and admin surfaces in your domain.
• Design data models for call records, reporting, and cross-region reconciliation.
• Deliver region-aware features as SignWow expands into new markets.
• Contribute to code reviews, testing, design documentation, and the on-call rotation.
• Work in a small team with a short path from idea to production, where your work reaches real users quickly.

Skills & Experience Required - Essential

• Senior full-stack experience with a strong portfolio.
• Proficiency in TypeScript / Node on the backend and React on the frontend.
• Working Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) experience, enough to build native bridges and integrate platform features.
• Strong PostgreSQL and relational data modeling.
• Solid API design and a working understanding of distributed systems.
• Comfortable with cloud infrastructure, containers, and CI/CD.
• Uses AI tools to work faster while retaining responsibility for design, architecture, and judgment calls.
• Able to lead a domain and ship with minimal supervision in a fast-moving team.

Skills & Experience Required - Desirable

• Real-time, WebRTC, or telephony exposure.
• Experience with reporting, analytics, or compliance-heavy products.
• Multi-region or multi-tenant systems.
• American Sign Language (ASL) knowledge is a strong plus.

Our Stack

• TypeScript / Node and React.
• PostgreSQL, Redis, websocket, and event-driven services.
• WebRTC-based real-time media.
• Cloud infrastructure, containers, infrastructure-as-code, and CI/CD.
• Async-first workflow with GitHub, Linear, Slack, and Notion.

What We Offer 

• Lead a real domain, not a backlog queue.
• Direct work with the founders and room to shape architecture.
• Flexible, results-focused remote work.
• Join a Deaf-led company making everyday communication more accessible.
