Must have skills required:

MongoDB, Express.js, react, Node.js, TypeScript, AWS, Azure, GCP

NXTINNOV is Looking for:

We're looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer to join NxtInNOv — an early-stage AI/agentic orchestration platform targeting enterprise clients in the energy and BFSI sectors. This is a founding engineer role: you'll own the full stack end-to-end, make real architecture decisions, and be the most senior technical voice in the room — with minimal oversight from a non-technical founder.

What You'll Actually Do

- Design and build backend services and APIs — making real architecture calls, not implementing someone else's spec

- Build full-stack features end to end: data model, API, and the frontend that consumes it

- Own scaling decisions — caching, queuing, async processing — before they become emergencies

- Design systems that stay maintainable as they grow: clear service boundaries, sensible data ownership, clean integration patterns

- Integrate AI/LLM-powered features as a first-class part of the system — designed in from the start, not bolted on

- Debug hard, ambiguous production issues across the stack, including under real load

- Make build-vs-buy calls on frameworks and tools, and be able to justify them

- Work independently — you'll often be the person deciding what "correct" looks like

Must-Have Requirements

- 3+ years of hands-on full-stack experience with the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) — must have built and owned both backend and frontend

- TypeScript proficiency on the backend (Node.js) — service design, not just consumption

- React + Next.js on the frontend — component architecture, state management, SSR trade-offs

- Real architecture decision-making experience — can name a specific decision made, the alternative not picked, and why

- Demonstrated understanding of how systems break at scale — caching, queuing, async processing, data ownership

- Cloud infra experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP) — deploying, scaling, and debugging in a live environment

- Experience with async and event-driven architecture — queues, background jobs, retries, eventual consistency

- Ability to work independently from a rough goal with no spec

- Strong Git workflow and CI/CD setup experience — not just using a pipeline someone else built

- LLM/AI API integration experience in a production system — understands cost, latency, and reliability trade-offs

Strongly Preferred

- Agent orchestration framework experience (LangChain, LangGraph, or similar)

- Vector database experience (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, or similar) for retrieval-augmented generation

- LLM observability/tracing tools (Langfuse or similar)

- Container orchestration at production scale (Kubernetes, Docker)

- Prior founding engineer, early-stage, or tech lead experience — where you set direction rather than followed one

- BFSI or energy domain exposure

What We're Not Looking For

- Someone who needs a fully-specified ticket to start working

- Someone who wants to be told the architecture rather than help define it
