Full-Stack Web Developer (React + Backend + Analytics)

About us

We’re building Interview Assistant AI - a web-based AI product that helps people prepare for and go through interviews with more confidence.

Our product philosophy is Activation-First:

• honest expectations from the first screen,
• reduced first-time user anxiety,
• safe practice before real interviews,
• no hype, dark patterns, or fake metrics.

You’ll work with clear product specs, a focused scope, and a small product team that values calm, thoughtful execution.
 

What you’ll work on (Phase 1)

This role is focused on a short, clearly defined execution phase.

At a practical level, you’ll:

• implement landing page and dashboard UI changes
  (no redesign, no copywriting - specs provided),
• add PostHog analytics on the frontend,
• implement backend events for:
  • interview lifecycle,
  • AI output generation,
  • activation and failure states.

The goal is to ship a clean activation flow and reliable analytics, without over-engineering.
 

How we like to work

We’re looking for a developer who is comfortable working from clear specs, and who also:

• points out simpler or more efficient ways to implement things,
• suggests better technical approaches (especially for analytics),
• surfaces tradeoffs when an implementation choice could affect timeline, cost, or risk,
• asks questions if something is ambiguous.

You won’t be expected to define product direction but your technical judgment is welcome and valued.
 

What this role is not

• No UX redesign
• No product discovery
• No experiments or A/B testing
• No growth dashboards
• No rewriting copy

This is a focused execution phase with clear boundaries.
 

Tech stack & experience

Must have

• React (or similar SPA framework)
• Backend experience (Node.js or similar)
• Experience with analytics tools (PostHog, Segment, Amplitude, etc.)
• Comfortable working with an existing codebase
• Clear written communication

Nice to have

• AI / LLM integrations
• Stripe or payments experience (future phase)
   

What’s next

Phase 1 is short and activation-focused.

If things go well, there may be follow-up work later (AI model updates, API / Stripe work), but the immediate focus is Phase 1 only.
 

Please be ready to answer a few short questions after the first contact.
