Senior Full Stack Developer (Backend-Focused) — Remote | Full-Time

Join Hilo Labs — where builders, tinkerers, and problem solvers thrive.

At Hilo Labs, we help founders and businesses bring ideas to life - fast. We design, build, and scale digital products across industries, from scrappy MVPs to high-scale production systems. We’re a small but mighty team that loves shipping great software, learning constantly, and working with clients who move quickly and think big.

We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer (Backend-Focused) who wants to grow fast, take ownership, and make an impact from day one. From day one you'll be working alongside a small, collaborative team, then you'll be able to take full ownership of your own projects as you gain experience.

• Work with MySQL and MongoDB databases
• Turn Figma designs into clean, functional frontends using Vue, Ionic, or React
• Contribute to architectural decisions that balance scalability and speed
• Collaborate through GitHub, Jira, and Notion
• Deploy to AWS and contribute to DevOps workflows
• Communicate clearly with teammates and eventually, with clients

• 3–5 years of full stack development experience
• Strong backend fundamentals and architectural thinking
• Experience with at least one modern frontend framework
• Familiarity with AWS, CI/CD, and cloud deployments
• Excellent communication, curiosity, and drive
• Eager to grow into a lead developer role

• Remote-first and flexible — we care about outcomes
• Real ownership of projects and client impact
• Fast-moving, curiosity-driven culture where learning never stops
• Work alongside a team that values autonomy, creativity, and ambition

If you’re the kind of person who likes to build things that matter, learn on the fly, and grow with a team that’s going places — we’d love to meet you.
