About the role
We are looking for a Founding Engineer to join our core product team at Snazzy. This is not a standard job — you’ll be one of only two engineers working directly with the founders to shape, architect, and scale a high-impact product from the ground up.
If you’re looking for a stable 9-to-5 or large-team environment, this won’t be the right fit. Apply only if you’re deeply motivated by building in a small team, high ownership, high impact environment where your code will directly define the product and the company’s trajectory.
What You’ll Do
-
Architect, build, and ship end-to-end features across backend (Golang, PostgreSQL, GCP) and frontend (ReactJS).
-
Own critical systems: from designing data models to optimizing user experience.
-
Take full responsibility for performance, security, and scalability of our applications.
-
Collaborate closely with founders to turn product vision into working software.
-
Wear multiple hats — from DevOps to debugging — until the team scales.
What We’re Looking For
-
1–5 years of professional full stack engineering experience.
-
Strong skills in ReactJS, Golang, PostgreSQL, and GCP (our core stack).
-
Someone who thrives in high-ownership, low-structure environments .
-
Bias toward action: you prefer building and iterating quickly over endless discussion.
-
A builder’s mindset — you care about product impact, not just clean code.
-
Comfort with ambiguity and ability to work independently with minimal handholding.
-
Nice to Have
-
Experience with Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and microservices.
-
Prior exposure to early-stage startups or building 0 → 1 products.
Why Join Us
Be part of the earliest core team — your work will define the product and company.
Small team = huge ownership, visibility, and impact.
Opportunity to work closely with experienced founders.
Competitive compensation + potential for future leadership role as the team scales.
