About SkillsDock


SkillsDock is a multi-tenant marketplace platform connecting homeowners with trade professionals across Australia. We're building a modular monolith with FastAPI backend, multiple Next.js 15 frontends, and a comprehensive feature set including AI-powered assistants.


The Role


We're looking for a shipping-focused generalist developer who thrives on wearing multiple hats and moving fast. You'll work directly alongside the founder as a true partner in building and shipping features across the entire stack.


What You'll Do


 - Ship relentlessly: Build features from database schema to deployment, end-to-end

 - Frontend & Backend: Toggle between FastAPI/Python and Next.js/TypeScript daily

 - Database & Infrastructure: Design schemas, write migrations, manage CI/CD pipelines

 - AI Integration: Work with AI agents, LLM integrations, and intelligent automation

 - DevOps: Deploy, monitor, troubleshoot across staging and production environments

 - Problem-solve creatively: Debug across the full stack - no "that's not my area"


You're a Great Fit If You:


 - ✅ Can context-switch rapidly between frontend, backend, database, and infrastructure

 - ✅ Prefer shipping working features over perfect architectures

 - ✅ Have experience (or strong interest) in AI/LLM integration and agents

 - ✅ Are comfortable reading unfamiliar code and figuring things out

 - ✅ Don't need hand-holding - you see a problem and fix it

 - ✅ Enjoy fast-paced startup environments where you own features end-to-end

 - ✅ Have strong Python and TypeScript/JavaScript skills

 - ✅ Understand databases (schema design, migrations, queries)

 - ✅ Know your way around CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows


Nice to Have:


 - Experience with FastAPI, Next.js, and Prisma

 - Knowledge of payment systems (Stripe) and webhooks

 - Familiarity with Australian market/regulations

 - Background in marketplace or multi-tenant platforms

 - Interest in dev tooling and AI-assisted development


What We Offer:


 - Ownership: Real impact on architecture and product decisions

 - Autonomy: Freedom to make technical decisions and ship quickly

 - Growth: Grow alongside a fast-moving startup with ambitious goals

 - Tech stack: Work with cutting-edge tools and modern best practices

 - You prefer large teams with defined roles

 - You're uncomfortable with rapid iteration and occasional technical debt

 - You can't handle ambiguity or changing priorities
