Job Description
About us
BluePro is an AI-powered field service management (FSM) platform for home-service businesses (HVAC, plumbing, window washing, water filtration, etc.). We’re early-stage, venture-backed, and already serving paying customers - shipping fast to help companies book jobs, dispatch techs, take payments, and delight customers with a modern, AI-first product suite.
Why this role matters
We’re hiring a Lead Full-Stack Developer to play a key role in shaping our product, guiding architecture, and collaborating with a small group of outsourced developers. You’ll partner closely with the founders and product to deliver high-quality features as a hands-on technical leader who raises the bar and helps the team move quickly and safely.
What you’ll do
Contribute across the stack: Plan, build, ship, and operate production features in Node.js, MongoDB, Tailwind, and our front end.
Guide architecture & quality: Propose designs, write lightweight tech specs/RFCs, and establish standards, tests, and review practices.
Lead through influence: Mentor outsourced devs, run code reviews, and ensure scalable patterns and maintainable code are followed.
Collaborate on product: Work with founders/PM/design to scope, sequence, and polish user-facing experiences.
Operate in production: Help set up instrumentation, monitoring, and performance improvements; participate in on-call for what the team ships.
Integrations & data: Build and maintain third-party integrations (telephony, payments, maps), data models, analytics events, and internal tools.
First 90 days
Co-lead delivery of a V2 web app with fast navigation, reliable forms, and solid accessibility.
Establish role-based access, audit logs, and environment promotion (dev staging prod).
Take responsibility for a key module (e.g., scheduling/dispatch, call center, or payments & invoicing) with support from the team.
Stand up pragmatic CI/CD, error tracking, and dashboards to ship confidently.
Create a lightweight tech spec + review cadence for outsourced contributors.
Tech you’ll touch (today & near-term)
Back end: Node.js (TypeScript), Express/Nest-style patterns, MongoDB (indexes, transactions, aggregations), Redis/queues.
Front end: Tailwind, modern component patterns, and design-minded implementation (React experience a plus).
Bonus: React/Next.js; React Native or Flutter; WebSockets/WebRTC; GraphQL/REST; feature flags/experimentation.
Integrations (nice to have): Payments (PayFac/Stripe/Finix), telephony (Telnyx/webhooks/SIP), maps/geo (routing, geofencing).
Platform/ops: Docker, GitHub Actions, Sentry/Datadog/OpenTelemetry, Vercel/AWS/Supabase-style services.
Must-have experience
4-8+ years building and operating full-scale web apps in production.
Strong with Node.js and MongoDB (data modeling, performance, migrations).
Proficient with Tailwind and front-end implementation; able to translate designs into accessible, responsive UI.
History of shaping architecture (modular boundaries, background jobs, cache/queue patterns, multi-tenant considerations).
Proven ability to lead and uplevel others: code reviews, standards, and steady velocity without sacrificing quality.
Comfort across the lifecycle: discovery spec implementation testing deploy monitor iterate.
Nice-to-haves
React/Next.js; mobile (React Native/Flutter).
Realtime systems: WebSockets, WebRTC, pub/sub.
Payments: PCI basics, ledgering, disputes, payouts, taxes/surcharging compliance.
Telephony/IVR: call flows, webhook events, recordings, speech-to-text.
AI features: LLM tool calls, prompt design, vector search, analytics.
Design systems/Storybook, visual regression testing.
“Unknown unknowns” you’ll likely help with
Multi-tenant & permissions: Org/branch/team scoping, RBAC/ABAC, safe query patterns.
Data integrity at scale: Idempotency, exactly-once webhooks, retries, outbox/inbox.
Observability & reliability: Structured logs, tracing, SLOs/error budgets, incident runbooks.
Performance: Profiling hot paths, MongoDB indexing strategy, caching, pagination.
Security & compliance: Secrets, SSO (OAuth/SAML), audit trails, SOC 2 readiness, PCI awareness.
CI/CD & environments: Preview deploys, safe schema migrations, canary/blue-green releases.
Quality strategy: Unit/integration/E2E tests, contract tests for external APIs.
Data & analytics: Event taxonomy, product analytics, funnel/retention dashboards.
Mobile & offline: Sync strategies, background tasks, push notifications.
Maps & routing: Geocoding, ETA/route optimization, geofences.
Cost control: Keeping infra and vendor spend sane as we scale.
How we work
Team ownership: We plan together, ship together, and support each other.
Bias to action: Short specs, quick feedback loops, frequent releases.
Pragmatic craft: Best tool for the job, minimal ceremony, high standards.
Compensation & logistics
Competitive salary + equity package.
Remote-friendly within U.S. time zones
Early-stage environment with real customers, venture backing, and meaningful influence on the roadmap.
