About Us

About the Role
As a Full-Stack JavaScript Developer, you’ll play a critical role in creating and launching products for Platform’s portfolio companies. Collaborating closely with non-technical founders and the studio team, you’ll focus on translating ideas into tangible, scalable solutions.
What You'll Do
- Build the MAP (Minimal Awesome Product): Quickly assemble components using existing tools and platforms to validate concepts efficiently, prioritizing impact over building from scratch.
- Technology Strategy: Define and implement the product’s tech stack and infrastructure, ensuring scalability and alignment with business goals.
- AI Integration: Leverage cutting-edge technologies, including AI, Machine Learning (ML), and Large Language Models (LLMs), to develop automated workflows and enhance product features.
- Team Leadership: Collaborate with the studio team to assemble and lead a technical team as the product grows.

- Iterate and Scale: Use user feedback to improve product features, optimize functionality, and prepare for scaling phases.
Experience & Skills Needed

Bring experience across the full stack, with the role leaning 60% backend and 40% frontend, requiring strong skills in server-side development, API design, and integration with frontend frameworks.
- Proven Ability to Build from 0 to 1: Creatively assemble and optimize tools and platforms to deliver impactful, scalable solutions.
- Hands-On Experience: Build web-based platforms, ideally integrating AI, Machine Learning (ML), Large Language Models (LLMs), and a focus on automation.
