Position: Java Full-Stack Technical Lead / Architect (React & AI)
Location: San Francisco Bay Area, CA (Hybrid)
Duration: Long Term
We're looking for someone who can confidently say: "I designed it, I coded it, I deployed it, and I can explain it to the client."
Role Summary
• We are hiring a hands-on Java Full-Stack Architect / Technical Lead with deep expertise in Java backend systems, modern React frameworks, and real-world AI integrations.
• This is not an ivory-tower architect role. You will design, code, review, and own solutions while working directly with clients, product teams, and business stakeholders.
• The ideal candidate is someone who can own architecture decisions, write production-grade code, and translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
What You'll Do
• Architect and build end-to-end full-stack systems using Java and React
• Remain hands-on with coding, reviews, and technical decision-making
• Design scalable, cloud-native architectures
• Integrate AI/LLM capabilities into enterprise applications
• (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, embeddings, RAG, intelligent workflows, etc.)
• Lead front-end architecture using modern React frameworks
• Own backend design using Java (Spring Boot, Microservices)
• Collaborate directly with product owners, business users, and clients
• Explain technical trade-offs and architecture decisions to non-technical stakeholders
• Review architecture, code quality, security, and performance
• Act as the single technical point of accountability for assigned solutions
• Mentor engineers while staying deeply hands-on
Required Skills & Experience
• 10+ years of overall software engineering experience
• Strong hands-on Java backend development
• Expert-level experience with React (modern frameworks, state management, performance)
• Proven experience designing and owning full-stack architectures
• Real production experience with AI integrations, such as:
• OpenAI / Azure OpenAI APIs
• LLM-based features
• Prompt orchestration, embeddings, or RAG patterns
• Strong understanding of cloud-native application design
• Experience working in client-facing roles
• Ability to translate business and product requirements into technical solutions
• Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills
• Experience in Agile delivery environments
Ideal Background
• Senior Software Engineer → Tech Lead → Full-Stack Architect
• Experience building enterprise-grade platforms
• Engineers who have owned:
• End-to-end system design
• Architecture decisions
• AI-enabled application features
• Prior consulting or services background with direct client interaction
