We're looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer with:

- Excellent TypeScript development skills and experience with React and JavaScript.
- Experience building backend services and working with REST APIs.
- Strong SQL database experience, ideally PostgreSQL.
- Commercial experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- The ability to provide technical leadership while remaining hands-on.
