Full Stack Engineer - React / Vapor / Server-Side Swift - 100% REMOTE
Remote, USA · EducationTitle: Full Stack Engineer – React / Vapor / Server-Side Swift
Location: Anywhere, USA - 100% Remote (will mostly be working in CST time zone)
Terms: Direct Hire / Perm W2
Salary/Rates: Commensurate with Experience (targeting 80-110K)
Reports To: CTO
Our Client provides software solutions to schools and school districts nationwide and is growing and seeking a Full-Stack Engineer for their software development team.
For this role – as a Full Stack Engineer we are focused on:
We are looking for a Software Engineer who will assist us with design, development and installation of software solutions. Your duties will include development, writing code, and documenting functionality. You should be able to build high-quality, innovative and fully performing software in compliance with coding standards and other technical design considerations.
Our Tech Stack
Our Client’s backend systems follow the concept of a citadel - monolithic at the center with extensions into specialty microservices in rare and necessary cases. We’ve been involved in the Server-Side Swift community since early 2017 and the majority of our backend services are written in Vapor, the leading Server Side Swift framework.
Our Client’s front-end system is a React codebase written in Typescript. We use tools like ReactStrap / Bootstrap, Webpack, Vite, and Yarn to work. We stay away from overly complex patterns unless we deem them absolutely necessary - although our product has many layers to it, we try to avoid letting that seep into our codebase. We use Typescript to define our state management as well as our API requests/responses.
Position Responsibilities
You should already have a comprehensive understanding of how to build reliable and efficient backends and frontends with an eye on efficiency and api-first approaches. As a remote-first team, it’s also critical that you demonstrate strong people and interpersonal skills, as well as writing capabilities. Importantly, you don’t need to be an expert in our specific backend technology stack (Vapor/Swift) to be successful - you just need to have on-the-job experience with another leading backend framework and be willing to learn quickly and dive right in. Your typical day may include: creating or modifying a portion of the user interface, writing code, crafting backend architecture, shaping our overall products, writing a feature pitch, or diagnosing a framework or Swift bug.
Here are some things we’ve worked on recently to give you a sense of what day-to-day work might look like:

Our Client is a different kind of company. We place a premium on social impact, having fun, working hard, and thinking deeply but practically. Our Client was created for educators by educators. We have forged both a corporate team and collaborative partnerships that represent some of the highest caliber talent and thinking in the field of K-12 education. In addition to diverse, high-energy, and smart professionals, we have a strong national network of leading educational organizations.
