Full Stack Engineer

The role

Codal is hiring a Full Stack Engineer in Lincoln to build web and mobile applications for enterprise clients. You will work with TypeScript, React, React Native and Next.js on the front end, Node.js or Python on the back end, and cloud platforms including AWS, GCP and Azure. You will own features from design hand-off to production and work directly with client stakeholders to shape what gets built.

This is a hands-on engineering and consulting role. We are looking for a full stack developer with strong fundamentals who turns client requirements into reliable, well-tested software. You will use AI-assisted development tools where they help you deliver faster, and you will make the call on when they are the right tool for the job.

Key responsibilities

Essential

• 2-4 years building production web applications professionally, across both front end and back end.
• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript, with commercial experience of React, Next.js or a similar modern framework.
• Back-end development in Node.js or Python, including REST or GraphQL API design.
• Experience with relational and document databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL or MongoDB.
• Hands-on experience deploying and running applications on AWS, GCP or Azure.
• Automated testing (unit, integration and end-to-end), Git, code review and CI/CD.
• Working understanding of API design and full-stack application architecture.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills, and the ability to work independently on moderately complex problems.
• Good Git habits, and experience with code review and CI/CD.
• Clear written and spoken communication, including with clients and non-technical people.
• Practical experience with AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code or Cursor, and sound judgement about when to use them.
• Experience in a client-facing or consulting environment, including explaining technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.
