Senior Full-stack TypeScript Developer

# About Us

Smirnov Labs is a fast-growing engineering company founded by an ex-Googler. We help product teams launch and scale quickly by leveraging modern technology and AI-assisted development.

Our projects are diverse — we partner with clients at the earliest stages and own the technical delivery end-to-end.

We're a small, senior-heavy team where every engineer has real impact. No bureaucracy, no hand-holding — just sharp people shipping fast.

This is an outstaff role: you'll be embedded directly with a client's engineering team as part of our delivery group.

## What You'll Do

- Own features end-to-end: from architecture and implementation to deployment and support.

- Build and ship web applications in a TypeScript monorepo — Next.js, React Query, and Tailwind on the frontend; Bun and Hono on the backend.

- Design and maintain APIs, services, and data layers with Prisma and PostgreSQL.

- Build and operate background processing and job queues with BullMQ.

- Work in a codebase that's actively being rewritten — under strong code review and automated review rules — and help raise the bar as you go.

- Communicate directly with the client's engineering team — no layers in between.

- Use AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) as part of your daily workflow.

- Work across diverse projects — different domains, different challenges.

## What We're Looking For

- 5+ years of professional full-stack development experience

- Strong TypeScript skills on both frontend and backend

- Solid hands-on experience with React, Next.js, and React Query

- Backend experience with Node-style runtimes and HTTP frameworks (Bun and Hono a strong plus)

- Production experience with PostgreSQL and Prisma (or a similar typed ORM)

- Experience with background jobs / queues (BullMQ or similar)

- Comfortable working in a monorepo and in a codebase under active rewrite, with strong code review and automated review gates

- Comfort working in the US timezone (overlapping working hours required)

- Upper-Intermediate or higher English

- Ability to own and drive features independently with minimal supervision

## What We Offer

- Competitive salary above market average

- Fully remote work

- Flat structure — work directly with the client's engineering team, no middle management

- Diverse and technically challenging projects

- Modern AI-powered development workflow

- Small team culture — your voice matters, your code ships

- Paid vacation and sick leave

- Flexible schedule within the US timezone overlap

- Professional and career growth through real ownership, not courses and certificates
