Full Stack Engineer

Description:

BlueLift builds software for businesses that operate under licence — banks, asset issuers, and institutions under regulatory supervision. We're building a multi-tenant platform where each client runs their own branded environment on shared infrastructure, and we need someone to own the application layer entirely.

You'd be the first engineer on the application side. A separate blockchain engineer owns the contract layer, and the two of you would define the boundary between them together.

The architecture decisions you make in month one will still be there in year three.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

→ Multi-tenant architecture — tenant isolation, per-client theming, configuration management. One client seeing another client's data is a business-ending event, not a bug, and this gets designed on day one rather than retrofitted.

→ Admin dashboard — setup workflows, permission management, records views, approval flows.

→ White-labelled client portal — onboarding, document access, and interfaces used by people who are not technical.

→ Integration layer — third-party identity and verification providers, through clean, swappable interfaces.

→ Audit trail and reporting — append-only records that hold up when someone with authority asks for six months of evidence in a specific format.

→ The API boundary between the application and contract layers, defined jointly with the blockchain engineer.

→ Engineering foundations — code standards, review culture, CI/CD, deployment pipeline, monitoring. All from scratch.

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

• 5+ years building production web applications

• At least one multi-tenant SaaS product you shipped and then maintained — this specific experience matters more than total years, because the hard problems only surface once real clients are on it

• TypeScript with Node.js, or Python — strong in at least one, comfortable in the other

• React or an equivalent modern framework, with real component architecture experience rather than only feature work

• PostgreSQL — schema design, query performance, indexing, and data integrity constraints
