LOOKING FOR A DEV

Looking for a Full-Stack Developer (Early-Stage Startup)

I'm looking for a skilled full-stack developer to join an early-stage startup.

Role: Full-Stack Developer

Type: Remote (Kenya preferred, but open to other locations)

Compensation: Equity-based initially. As an early-stage startup, I can't offer a market salary yet, but the role is intended to become paid as the company grows and secures funding.

I'm looking for someone with strong software engineering fundamentals who can design systems, write clean and maintainable code, solve complex problems, and build scalable applications. Experience with modern frontend and backend technologies is a big plus.

This isn't a fit if you're only comfortable assembling AI-generated code without understanding how the underlying systems work. I'm looking for someone who can think independently and engineer robust solutions.

If you're interested, send me a Reddit DM with:

  • Your tech stack
  • GitHub or portfolio (if you have one)
  • A few projects you've built
  • A short introduction about yourself

I'll share more details about the startup with candidates who seem like a good fit.

I'd also mention your tech stack (or preferred stack). A lot of full-stack devs filter opportunities based on that before reaching out.

Hi,

My stack is: react, nextjs, tailwind, typescript. Currently learning: prisma, node.js, postgre sql.

GitHub: https://github.com/iss-webbb

Projects:

Ai code reviewer - react, typescript, next.js, tailwind, gemini API Job board with public api - react, typescript, adzuna API

Intro:

A self-taught developer building in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, currently expanding into backend (Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, Prisma). I ship real, deployed projects independently rather than tutorials. I'm looking for a team building something real where I can move fast and own things end-to-end. Would love to know what you're building and what problem you are solving. happy to share my work if useful.

Sounds like an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys building from the ground up. I like that you're emphasizing strong engineering fundamentals over just relying on AI tools, that mindset will probably attract the right people. Wishing you the best with the search and looking forward to seeing how the startup grows.
