Responsibilities
- Translate ambiguous, high-level product ideas into concrete technical plans by asking stakeholders the right questions.
- Design, build, and ship end-to-end features across Java/Spring backend services, APIs, data layers, testing, infrastructure, and rollout.
- Implement frontend work using modern technologies such as TypeScript, React, Microfrontends, and Module Federation, alongside legacy Dart components.
- Evaluate an existing codebase, deciding what to reuse or rebuild while preventing unnecessary technical debt.
- Anticipate system-level effects and manage risks before they become incidents.
- Make technical and product tradeoffs independently and drive work through completion.
- Use Cursor, Claude/Codex, the internal AI portal, and MCP daily, including creating automations and skills where they improve productivity.
- Critically evaluate AI-generated output and challenge product requirements when they do not hold up.
Requirements
- Strong full-stack engineering experience with deep knowledge of Java 21, Spring, REST APIs, SQL, TypeScript, and React 19.
- Demonstrated ownership of features or systems from end to end rather than only executing fully specified tickets.
- Experience navigating and improving an existing, non-trivial codebase rather than working only in greenfield environments.
- Advanced hands-on use of AI coding tools in daily engineering work.
- Ability to make decisions under ambiguity and own the outcomes.
- Relevant backgrounds may include technical founders, early startup engineers, small-company CTOs or Heads of Engineering, and senior engineers with active recent open-source or side-project work.
Benefits
- 5 weeks of paid vacation.
- Sick leave compensation, including 5 paid uncertified sick days, 2 weeks fully paid with a medical certificate, and an additional 4 weeks paid at 80% salary rate.
- Fully paid parental leave: 18 weeks maternity and 4 weeks paternity.
- 2 volunteer days.
- Meal vouchers worth CZK 220 per working day.
- Annual Prague Travel Card (Lítačka).
- Hybrid working model, with employees near certain hubs generally expected to work in person 2–3 days per week.
- Flexible benefit budget including a MultiSport card, Canadian Medical membership, pension savings contributions, and Benefit Plus options.
