AI First Full-Stack Developer

Qualifications and requirements

**Who we're looking for**A productive, curious, AI-fluent developer who wants to grow with us — not someone who's already done it all.**Core requirements:**
- 1–3 years building full-stack apps with TypeScript, React, Next.js (App Router), and a SQL database
- Production experience with Prisma + PostgreSQL — schemas you've designed, migrations you've run
- Daily user of Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent for at least 6 months. We'll ask how you work.
- Public GitHub or portfolio with recent commits we can read
- Working English — daily async writing + 1–2 live calls per week
- Located in Latin America (Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay ideal)
- Treats security, accessibility, and observability as first-class concerns
- Curious and coachable — we're a small team building together. You share your thinking, ask good questions, take feedback well.**How we work (traits that matter):****Skepticism + delegation:** trust the *process* (writing agent + reviewer agent + CI), not any single generation. Claude lies confidently sometimes — you know that.**Reviews behavior, not implementations:** you run the feature, read test names, trust the reviewer subagent. No reading working code line-by-line.**Ownership end-to-end:** feature, edge cases, error states, reliability — all yours.**Founder-friendly:** direct access, doesn't wait to be told.If you've shipped a feature you're proud of and can explain which parts came from you and which from the AI — talk to us.

Projects

LeadsEngine (https://leadsengine.app) is a profitable B2B SaaS that helps Medical supply resellers create, launch, and scale Facebook ad campaigns through a guided 7-step wizard. Customers pay $1,597–$2,497 for access. The product is live, the codebase is solid, and we ship every week.We are hiring our first engineering teammate. Currently the founder pair-codes with Claude Code, end-to-end. The new hire joins that workflow — not assists it from the side.We use a subagent-orchestrated workflow modeled on patterns from the Claude Code team at Anthropic. A writing subagent implements features. A separate reviewer subagent reviews the diff. CI runs lint, typecheck, tests, and build before any merge. Humans curate, orchestrate, and judge — we do not type every line by hand. If that workflow sounds exciting, this role is for you.Our stack: Next.js 14 (App Router), TypeScript, React, Tailwind, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Supabase Auth, Stripe, Meta Marketing API, Vercel.

Job functions

**What you'll do**Own features from spec to shipped, working directly with the founder using a subagent-orchestrated workflow.**Roadmap (next 6 months):**
- New features across the wizard, dashboard, and admin tools
- Invoice generation, auto-responder, and scheduling integrations
- Location pinning (multi-region campaign targeting)
- Meta ad scaling automation (auto-pause/scale on performance signals)
- Facebook profile scanner (lead qualification at scale)
- Reliability and observability improvements**How every feature ships:**1. We agree on the spec — small batches, clear acceptance criteria
2. You drive a writing subagent (Claude Code) to implement + write tests
3. Lint, typecheck, and tests pass locally before push
4. You invoke the reviewer subagent via `/review` on your own diff — address findings
5. PR with a description that explains *why*, not just *what*
6. CI must be green to merge
7. Founder reviews the PR description and spot-checks behavior + security touch-points
8. You merge. Feature reaches customers within days.**You're responsible for** orchestrating writing + reviewer agents, judging when the AI is wrong, writing tests that prove behavior, and PR descriptions that survive without you in the room.**What you'll learn:**
- AI-first development that ships 3–5x faster than traditional teams
- Production patterns: Stripe webhooks, Supabase Auth, Meta Marketing API
- How to run a small SaaS — direct exposure to product, customers, decisionsIf you've been coding 1–3 years and want to level up fast, this is the right room.
