About The Position

Future Energy Enterprises is seeking a highly motivated and growth-oriented Full Stack Developer to join our growing team.

The successful candidate will receive dedicated mentorship and will be put through a technical onboarding program focused on accelerated learning. You will be a key contributor to a mission-critical greenfield platform (new project with no existing code) scheduled for delivery within the next two years. The role requires a strong full-stack perspective with an emphasis on the frontend experience, responsible for designing and implementing the BFF (Backend-for-Frontend) architecture and user-facing features.

Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
Frontend Mastery: 3+ years of professional React development (Hooks, Context, component architecture).
2+ years with Next.js (App Router or Pages Router).
2+ years of strong TypeScript proficiency (types, interfaces, generics).
Design & Integration: 2+ years of strong CSS skills (including frameworks like Tailwind CSS, styled-components, or CSS Modules) with a focus on Responsive Design (mobile-first).
Experience with REST API integration (e.g., fetch, axios, or React Query).
Experience with modern State Management libraries (e.g., Redux, Zustand, Context, or Jotai).
Backend Foundation: Experience with Python/Django or other ORM frameworks, knowledge of database systems (e.g., Postgres DB SQL), and foundational knowledge of software architecture principles, particularly the BFF (Backend-for-Frontend) pattern.

Industry Experience: Energy efficiency or utility industry experience.

Responsibilities

Develop, test, and maintain features for new products and features, with a strong focus on the frontend and the BFF layer.
Contribute to the design and decision-making for the system's architecture, leveraging modern patterns like BFF.
Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders to translate ambiguous, early-stage requirements into clear, high-quality technical solutions.
