Job Description
Full-Stack Engineer building React and Node.js/TypeScript features for Acely’s AI-powered SAT and ACT tutoring platform. Owning student-facing product development from scoping through production.
Responsibilities:
- Build student-facing features end to end across the React front-end and Node.js/TypeScript back-end, from initial scoping through production and iteration.
- Own work through design review, testing, release quality, and post-deployment outcomes.
- Shape the product by partnering with Product and Design to evaluate ideas, identify trade-offs, and propose better approaches.
- Improve testing, QA, and release practices while maintaining speed and quality.
- Contribute to engineering practices and tooling.
- Collaborate with a small, senior team through open code reviews and technical decisions.
- Contribute across infrastructure, data questions, and other areas where impact is possible.
Requirements:
- Strong production experience with React, Node.js, and TypeScript, with a track record of shipping and maintaining real user-facing software.
- Genuine full-stack range: comfortable moving between UI work, API design, and data modeling in the same week.
- Demonstrated ability to scope your own work, take an ambiguous problem, break it down, communicate the plan, and execute it.
- Strong judgment about quality and trade-offs, knowing when something needs to be done properly and when shipping today is the right call.
- Clear communicator who works well with non-engineers and can explain technical decisions to Product, Design, and Marketing.
- Fluency with modern AI-assisted development workflows as part of day-to-day engineering practice.
- Care about students, craft, and the team.
- US-based and able to work as a full-time employee.
- Not required, but a strong plus: basic infrastructure and DevOps experience, including CI/CD, deployments, and observability.
- Not required, but a strong plus: experience with document and relational databases, especially MongoDB and Postgres.
- Not required, but a strong plus: experience at a larger or AI-native engineering organization.
- Not required, but a strong plus: experience with experimentation and A/B testing, payments, or analytics instrumentation.
- Not required, but a strong plus: comfort with ambiguity and wearing multiple hats in a fast-paced startup.
Benefits:
- Competitive salary ($160k - $190k based on experience) + equity
- Remote-first (with optional quarterly SF meetups)
- Full health benefits (medical, dental, vision)
- 401(k) with company match
