Fullstack React/Node developer (Ticketing and marketing solution)
About the Project: We are building a massive, proprietary Ticketing & Event Management Ecosystem for the US market. This is NOT a standard booking site. We are engineering a custom, high-load platform from scratch. The ecosystem includes:
- Complex Web Platform: Handling Reserved Seating schemes, Camping bookings, and deep Event Management logic.
- On-Site Operations: Gate Scanning functionality and Ticket Printer control. We develop the scanning logic and integrate it with physical hardware for printing.
Mobile Ecosystem: A feature-rich mobile application for organizers and attendees.
We don't use "out-of-the-box" solutions. We build our own logic to handle heavy complexity. If you prefer solving technical puzzles rather than integrating standard plugins, this is your place.
⚠️ THE CULTURE (Read this first): We are a US-based startup in an aggressive growth phase. We are looking for a Founding Engineer mindset.
- Intensity: We work with the US market. Late evening calls (European time) are standard to sync with the founders.
- Ownership: You don't just "close tickets." You own the feature from the database architecture to the UI. If the Gate System goes down on a Saturday night during a festival, you are the one helping to fix it.
- No "Code Monkeys": We discuss business goals. You need to understand why we are building a feature. If a requirement doesn't make sense technically, we expect you to push back and propose a better solution.
Tech Stack: React, Remix, Tailwind UI, Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, PostgreSQL (TypeORM), GCP infrastructure.
Requirements:
- 4+ years of engineering experience, with deep expertise in the Node.js/React ecosystem.
- Modern Stack Mastery: You are proficient with NestJS on the backend and React/Remix + Tailwind UI on the frontend.
- Architectural Grit: Experience building custom complex systems (booking engines, CRM, logistics). You know how to design database schemas (PostgreSQL/TypeORM) that won't break under load.
- Integrations: Experience with payment processors (Stripe, etc.) and—crucially—an interest in working with hardware integrations (printers, scanners, IoT).
- US Startup Availability: You are comfortable working late hours and staying responsive during critical festival launches.
- Mobile Awareness: Knowledge of mobile development (React Native) is a plus.
- English: Upper-Intermediate or higher. You must be able to explain complex technical trade-offs to the founders.
Responsibilities:
- Engineer the Core: Design and develop the backend and frontend for the Ticketing Platform.
- Solve Hard Problems: Implement logic for Reserved Seating, interactive maps, and complex order flows.
- Hardware & Gate Logic: Write code that interacts with the physical world (scanning tickets, printing).
- Performance: Optimize the app to handle traffic spikes during ticket sales drops.
- Quality & DevOps: Write testable code, manage CI/CD pipelines, and deploy to GCP. You break it, you fix it.
We Offer:
- High Reward for High Performance: Competitive salary + Advanced Bonus System (We reward those who build the business with us).
- Real Engineering Challenge: No CMS wrappers. Pure custom development on an actual stack.
- Direct Impact: Your code runs the show at real festivals in the US.
