As a Junior Full Stack Developer, you’ll contribute to building modern, user‑friendly applications that support frontline healthcare and social‑care workers, in our exciting start up IT company. You’ll work across mobile, backend, and cloud technologies while learning directly from experienced engineers in a supportive, growth‑focused environment.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Mobile Development — Contribute to building and maintaining cross‑platform mobile apps for iOS and Android using React Native.
* Backend Support — Assist in writing, improving, and maintaining serverless APIs built with Node.js and Azure Functions.
* Database Operations — Learn to query, structure, and manage data within Azure Cosmos DB and understand NoSQL design patterns.
* Testing & Debugging — Collaborate with QA to identify issues, validate fixes, and support smooth, reliable deployments.
* Development Workflow — Work with industry‑standard tools (VS Code, Xcode, Android Studio, Git) to write clean code and collaborate effectively.
* Continuous Learning — Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and mentorship sessions to accelerate your growth as a developer.
What We’re Looking For
* Foundational Knowledge — Solid understanding of JavaScript fundamentals; TypeScript familiarity is a plus.
* Frontend Skills — Basic experience with React or React Native, or strong foundational knowledge of component‑based UI development.
* Backend Familiarity — Understanding of Node.js, RESTful APIs, and how data flows between frontend and backend systems.
* Growth Mindset — Eagerness to learn cloud architecture (especially Azure), serverless patterns, and NoSQL databases.
* Problem‑Solving — Comfortable asking questions, researching solutions, and troubleshooting development environment issues.
* Mission‑Driven — Motivated by building technology that improves the daily operations of frontline healthcare and social‑support professionals and someone who wants to be apart of watching this company grow.
Who You Are (The Teammate We’re Looking For)
* Team‑First Mindset — You care about collaboration more than ego. You communicate clearly, support others, and value shared wins.
* Curious Problem‑Solver — You enjoy figuring things out. You ask thoughtful questions, explore new ideas, and aren’t afraid to dig into unfamiliar territory.
* Reliable & Accountable — You follow through on commitments, communicate blockers early, and take pride in delivering work you can stand behind.
* Driven — You’re hungry to learn. You actively seek feedback, embrace mentorship, and want to become a stronger engineer every month.
* Growth - Someone who wants to grow and better themselves in this field and progress with the company and as individuals as we begin to expand.
* Empathetic Builder — You care about the people who use your software. You think about their challenges, frustrations, and workflows when writing code.
* Calm Under Pressure — You stay level‑headed when things break, deadlines shift, or priorities change — and you approach problems with patience and clarity.
* Mission‑Aligned — You’re motivated by meaningful work and want to build tools that genuinely improve the lives of frontline healthcare and social‑care workers.
Qualifications & Experience We Value
* Real‑World Portfolio — Whether you’re self‑taught or formally trained, we want to see the projects you’ve built, the problems you’ve solved, and the technologies you’ve worked with. Your portfolio and practical experience matter most.
* Formal Education — A degree, diploma, or certification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is beneficial — but not required. We welcome candidates who’ve taken alternative learning paths.
* Hands‑On Experience — Any exposure to building apps, APIs, or personal projects using JavaScript, TypeScript, React, React Native, or Node.js is highly valuable.
* Understanding of Software Design — Ability to work within structured, well‑defined development patterns (or willingness to learn them). We value both self‑taught adaptability and formal design discipline.
* Cloud & Serverless Interest — Familiarity with Azure, serverless functions, or SQL databases is a plus — but curiosity and willingness to learn are just as important.
* Collaborative Mindset — Experience working in teams, contributing to shared codebases, or participating in code reviews is helpful, even if only through school projects or open‑source contributions.
