Full Stack Developer [AQ-12007]

Partner with Aquent to join a world-renowned leader known for groundbreaking innovation and a commitment to excellence. This organization is at the forefront of shaping how people interact with technology, creating intuitive and powerful experiences that touch millions globally. As a pivotal member of this team, you will drive efficiency and innovation, making a tangible impact on critical business operations and empowering teams with powerful, intuitive data tools.

About the Opportunity

Are you ready to design and develop cutting-edge, end-to-end data applications that will redefine how critical business operations function? This exceptional opportunity invites you to build interactive frontends, robust middleware services, and scalable data-serving APIs. You will play a unique role in automating manual processes, significantly increasing efficiency for a central function, and making complex data products accessible to a wide audience. Operating with high autonomy, you will drive features from conception to delivery within a fast-paced, two-week sprint cycle, collaborating across product and analytics teams to deliver impactful solutions.

This role offers a dynamic blend of hands-on engineering and strategic technical leadership, with a 70/30 split between delivering code and shaping architectural direction. You will be instrumental in bridging critical team skill gaps, setting best practices, and defining design patterns for our data application ecosystem. Your work will directly enhance operational efficiency and empower teams with powerful, intuitive data tools.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop end-to-end data applications, encompassing interactive frontends, middleware services, and data-serving APIs.
• Lead development efforts on client-facing and middle layers, utilizing React and Node.js.
• Develop robust API layers using Python and frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, or Django.
• Design and implement relational database schemas, primarily with PostgreSQL.
• Deploy applications on cloud services, leveraging infrastructure as code principles.
• Operate with high autonomy, independently researching, executing, and delivering features within a two-week sprint cycle.
• Collaborate effectively with product and analytics teams to gather requirements and deliver impactful solutions.
• Provide technical solutions architecture, including setting technical direction, enforcing best practices, and defining design patterns.
• Automate manual processes to significantly increase the overall efficiency of a central function.

Must-Have Qualifications

• Extensive Hands-On Experience: You are deeply “in the weeds” of software delivery, with a comprehensive understanding of every layer of the web stack. This is a hands-on role; pure solutions or technical architects will not be considered.
• Strong frontend engineering experience building production-grade web applications with React.
• Experience developing middleware and backend services with Node.js.
• Proficiency with Python and frameworks like FastAPI, Flask, or Django.
• Strong working knowledge of PostgreSQL or other relational databases (experience with NoSQL or graph databases is not relevant for this role).
• Familiarity with deploying applications on cloud services and managing infrastructure via infrastructure as code tools.
• High Autonomy & Drive: Proven ability to act as a self-starter. You excel at independent research, leveraging available tools, and driving features to completion without needing heavy hand-holding or explicit day-to-day directions.
• Collaboration & Problem-Solving: Ability to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and independently solve complex technical challenges.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• Experience building applications for marketing functions or working within digital ad agencies / tech marketing groups.
