Senior Full-Stack Developer (Laravel + Node.Js + Flutter/React Native)- Part Time

Read Before Applying

This is not a freelance “ticket delivery” role.

We’re looking for a hands-on architect-builder who is ready to own a system end-to-end and evolve into a Founding CTO once Phase 1 scales.

If you’re an experienced builder who wants to own , not just code, and architect the vision — this is your moment to be part of the founding story.

Your Role

• Build Admin, Vendor, and User Panels with role-based access control
• Create modular APIs for vendors, ads, rewards, postbacks, and analytics
• Design the hybrid backend (Laravel + Node.Js) for both transactional stability and async performance
• Implement microservices for event-driven tasks (tracking, analytics, notifications)
• Develop Flutter/React Native apps for cross-platform launch
• Integrate affiliate SDKs, game APIs, ad modules, and wallet systems
• Manage DevOps, CI/CD, and cloud architecture (AWS / GCP)
• Ensure scalability, security, and modularity from Day 1
• Collaborate with the founder on architecture, sprints, and roadmap execution
