WHAT YOU'LL DO AT H1

As a Software Engineer I on the MCU team, you will work alongside senior engineers to contribute to the full-stack systems that power our data platform. This is a hands-on role with real ownership from day one — you will ship production code, grow your technical depth across the stack, and be supported by a team that invests in your development.

You will

• Contribute to full-stack features across the React frontend and NestJS backend microservices, with support and guidance from senior engineers

• Write clean, well-tested TypeScript across frontend and backend services

• Build and maintain GraphQL resolvers and REST endpoints that power internal tooling and data workflows

• Write and optimize SQL queries against PostgreSQL, including joins, CTEs, and indexed lookups

• Participate in Kafka-based event pipeline development: understand consumer/producer patterns, topic design, and offset handling

• Work within our Kubernetes environment: deploy services, understand Helm chart configurations, and investigate basic cluster issues with support

• Contribute to AWS-based data workflows and assist with PySpark jobs on EMR

• Work with Elasticsearch: learn query DSL, understand mapping basics, and support search feature development

• Apply frontend performance techniques such as lazy loading, memoization, and component optimization

• Write unit and integration tests and participate actively in code reviews

• Partner with senior engineers and product to translate requirements into working software

• Demonstrated ability and willingness to pick up new languages, frameworks, and technologies as our stack evolves

ABOUT YOU

You have solid technical skills across the full stack and a passion for building reliable, scalable systems. You thrive in a collaborative environment, enjoy learning from experienced engineers, and are eager to take on increasing ownership as you grow in the role.

• You are comfortable working across the frontend and backend and are curious about the full system, not just your immediate task

• You take initiative, ask good questions, and follow through without needing every step spelled out

• You have an understanding of Large Language Models (LLMs) and their applications

• It’s a bonus if you’re familiar with AI agent frameworks (Vercel AI SDK, LangChain.js) or RAG and vector search concepts

• You are able to work collaboratively across teams and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on code quality and system reliability

• You have a passion for writing clean, efficient code and following engineering best practices

REQUIREMENTS

• 2–3 years of Full stack Engineer experience working on production systems

• Proficiency in TypeScript, JavaScript, React.

• Node.js / NestJS backend experience.

• GraphQL fundamentals & Solid SQL skills.

• Awareness of event-driven architectures; exposure to Kafka concepts (producers, consumers, topics) is a plus

• Familiarity with containerized deployments like Kubernetes.

• Familiarity with core AWS services (S3, RDS); exposure to EKS, MSK, or EMR is a plus

• Ability to read, run, and modify Python scripts; PySpark exposure is a plus
