Senior Full-Stack Engineer (React, Node.js & Stripe)
Remote | Philippines | Full-Time Php 150,000 - 200,000/month, negotiable | 8:00 PM – 5:00 AM PHT (8 AM - 5 PM ET) | Long-Term Remote Role
If you’re a high-performing full-stack engineer who thrives on architecture stability, complex payment workflows, and working with a leading US-based e-commerce platform that values practical execution over theoretical over-engineering — keep reading.
This isn’t a role for a "code monkey" waiting around for rigid Jira instructions.
This is a focused, outcome-driven position where you’ll take full ownership of a live production codebase, turn rapid product concepts into scalable systems, and directly influence an active, revenue-generating ecosystem.
Why This Is a Dream Job
You’ll be working directly with a product-driven USA founder in the e-commerce fintech space who:
Champions Practical Execution: Operates a fast-moving environment that prioritizes system stability, rapid feature shipment, and clean code over buzzwords.
Values Technical Ownership: Provides structural autonomy to clean up architecture, improve database logic, and grow into the platform's core technical anchor.
Respects Your Expertise: Partners closely with you to transform early front-end user concepts ("vibe coding") into secure, enterprise-grade production software.
Builds Stability: Has an established, revenue-generating commerce and payments network within the highly lucrative alcohol industry and is looking for a long-term engineering teammate.
You’ll get career transformation, high-level visibility, and the freedom to lead platform-wide engineering solutions — without being stuck in corporate bureaucracy.
What You’ll Be Owning
This is a core technical leadership role covering database structures, secure order routing, and payment integrations. You aren't just writing simple API endpoints; you are organizing distributed web architecture in a modern way—mastering state management, relational database optimizations, webhooks, and multi-sided platform logic to frame a flawless checkout experience.
You’ll take the lead on:
Live Platform Evolution: Seamlessly maintaining, refactoring, and improving an already functioning live React/Next.js and Node.js application.
Founder-Led Implementation: Connecting and refining front-end user concepts built through creative "vibe coding," ensuring they are properly coupled with a robust backend.
End-to-End Feature Delivery: Owning the complete lifecycle of new features across checkout dashboards, admin tools, and creator/affiliate workflows.
Fintech & Payout Management: Enhancing and securing the platform's monetary engine utilizing Stripe and Stripe Connect integrations.
E-commerce & Logistics Operations: Improving order routing systems, retailer inventory syncs, data analytics reporting, and fulfillment tracking.
Engineering Excellence: Cleaning up technical debt, authoring documentation, establishing QA best practices, and ensuring maximum server deployment reliability.
Requirements
This Role Is a Great Fit If You:
Are a Systems Architect: You have an exceptional ability to step into an existing live production codebase, diagnose technical layout inefficiencies, and improve them without breaking active dependencies.
Are a Full-Stack Hybrid: You are equally comfortable troubleshooting complex query joins in PostgreSQL as you are crafting slick user interfaces in Next.js.
Are a Pragmatic, Ship-First Operator: You know how to move exceptionally fast while keeping software stable, choosing practical delivery over over-engineered abstractions.
Have 6–8 years of experience as a Senior Full-Stack Engineer, Lead Engineer, or Architect-level builder, preferably with a background in e-commerce, marketplaces, or fintech.
Possess hands-on experience configuring and scaling complex payment flows via Stripe, Stripe Connect, or similar multi-merchant checkout systems.
Are High-Accountability: You don't need to be chased for updates. You proactively communicate engineering progress, call out technical tradeoffs, and provide visibility into delivery timelines.
Communicate with elite fluency and professional confidence.
What Success Looks Like
After 60–90 Days:
The Platform is Fortified: You have audited the existing application, resolved legacy bottlenecks, and established 100% production stability.
Production is Seamless: You are effortlessly balancing system maintenance with shipping new marketplace features for creators, brands, and retailers.
Impact is Measured: Your codebase clean-up shows a measurable lift in page speed, API load latencies, and checkout conversion reliability.
Trust is Earned: The founder relies completely on your technical judgment to guide architectural decisions without needing micro-supervision.
Benefits
100% Permanent Remote Work
Highly Competitive PH Market Salary (Negotiable based on technical depth)
Direct Access to Executive Decision Makers
Dedicated Success Coaching & Upskilling Opportunities
Long-term Job Security with an Already Profitable, Live US Platform
Final Word
If you’ve ever thought: "I am a world-class full-stack engineer who can handle it all—frontend, heavy backend systems, and complex payouts—I just want a product leader who is fast-moving and values my technical autonomy," this is that role.
Let’s build long-term success — together.
