About the Opportunity

micro1 is engaging highly skilled Full-Stack Software Engineers to contribute to an AI training project focused on software development, technical problem-solving, debugging, system architecture, and code evaluation.

The work involves creating, solving, reviewing, and validating challenging software-engineering tasks across both front-end and back-end systems. Experts may also work on translating complete software builds from one programming language into another while maintaining functionality, correctness, and overall system behavior.

This role requires meaningful hands-on experience across the full application stack. Candidates should be comfortable working across front-end and back-end systems rather than specializing exclusively in one layer.

Responsibilities

• Develop, modify, and debug front-end and back-end application components.
• Implement user-facing features along with the services, APIs, and data models that support them.
• Trace requests and data across browsers, front-end applications, APIs, services, databases, and external integrations.
• Work effectively within unfamiliar repositories and understand existing application architecture.
• Diagnose failures involving application state, API contracts, authentication, persistence, networking, and deployment.
• Develop and evaluate software solutions across multiple programming languages.
• Translate complete coding implementations from one programming language into another while preserving intended functionality.
• Review AI-generated software solutions for correctness, completeness, performance, security, and maintainability.
• Identify technical issues and recommend appropriate improvements to application code and architecture.
• Validate solutions against functional and technical requirements.
• Apply strong engineering judgment when analyzing complex software-development problems.

Required Qualifications

• Strong professional experience developing production full-stack applications.
• Meaningful hands-on experience with both front-end and back-end engineering.
• Production experience working with multiple programming languages.
• Strong understanding of browser applications, APIs, application state, databases, and service integrations.
• Experience understanding and contributing to the architecture of complete software systems.
• Ability to work effectively within unfamiliar codebases and repositories.
• Strong debugging and technical problem-solving skills.
• Ability to analyze software behavior across multiple layers of an application stack.
• Strong understanding of software development practices, code quality, and system reliability.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional experience with multiple languages including Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Node.js, React, Rust, or Golang.
• Experience developing modern front-end applications using React, JavaScript, or TypeScript.
• Experience building back-end services and APIs using Python, Java, Node.js, Rust, or Golang.
• Experience working with databases, authentication systems, external APIs, and distributed services.
• Experience with system architecture and full-stack application design.
• Experience debugging complex production issues across front-end and back-end layers.
• Experience reviewing or evaluating AI-generated code and technical solutions.
• Ability to translate software implementations between different programming languages.
• Strong understanding of performance, security, maintainability, and scalability considerations.
