Lead Full Stack Developer | Richmond, Melbourne (Hybrid)

Full-Time | Tech-Driven Role in a Non-Tech Business

React, Node.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, AWS, React Native or Flutter a BONUS

We’re partnering with an operations-led organisation undergoing rapid digital transformation, and they’re looking for a Lead Full Stack Developer to help drive this next phase of growth.

Working within a compact but expanding team, this is a unique opportunity to step into a hands-on leadership role—you’ll be deeply involved in coding, shaping technical architecture, and mentoring both local and offshore developers.

What you’ll be doing:

Architecting backend solutions using AWS serverless technologies within a microservices environment

Building and maintaining scalable web and cross-platform mobile apps (React Native or Flutter experience is a bonus)

Driving end-to-end software delivery: from planning and development to deployment and performance monitoring

Leading and mentoring a growing team, fostering engineering best practices and collaboration

Managing delivery across onshore and offshore resources

Guiding technical decisions and introducing tools for visibility across code quality, deployment, and team velocity

Writing clean, testable code and contributing to system documentation

Tech Stack & Skills:

8–12 years of professional experience in software development

Strong background in React, Node.js, JavaScript, TypeScript

Proven experience in AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, API Gateway) and microservices architecture

Exposure to React Native or Flutter (a plus—not essential)

Solid understanding of modern development workflows and CI/CD pipelines

Ability to lead a developer while being hands-on yourself (approx. 50% coding, 30% architecture, 20% team oversight)

Why this role?

You’ll play a key part in shaping how this company scales its tech footprint—from integrating systems with Salesforce to overseeing the build of mobile applications and cloud infrastructure. It's an exciting time to join a business that's modernising its platforms and building for the future.

📍 Location: Richmond, Melbourne (Hybrid – 3 days in-office, 2 days WFH – some flexibility available)
