About the Role
We're currently looking for a Lead Fullstack Engineer to join the core product team of Ezra Climate — a fast-growing US-based startup that’s building tools to simplify and accelerate climate financing. Backed by top-tier investors, Ezra operates at the intersection of technology, finance, and climate action, with a mission to help individuals and businesses invest in projects that benefit the planet.
As a Lead Fullstack Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping the technical foundation of the platform, owning full product features from backend to frontend, and collaborating closely with the founding team.

⚠️ Please Note
We are hiring engineers located in Belarus only or those relocated to the LATAM region.
The team operates on a US time zone, so you’ll need to work approximately from 18:00 to 02:00 Minsk time (GMT+3), if located in Belarus.
Please make sure this schedule fits your availability before applying.

What You’ll Do:

    • Backend & API Development:
    • Build scalable, high-performance backend services using Python and FastAPI.

    • Implement async task processing, caching strategies (Redis), and secure auth layers (e.g., JWT).
    • AI-Native Frontend Development:
    • Build real-time, interactive UIs with React/Next.js and TypeScript.
    • Use WebSockets or Server-Sent Events (SSE) for live data and conversational interfaces.
    • Leverage Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, and tools like Zustand, React Query, or SWR.
    • Testing, Infrastructure & Observability:
    • Ensure code quality via unit/integration tests (pytest, Jest, React Testing Library).
    • Containerize and deploy apps using Docker, Vercel, AWS, or GCP.
    • Monitor performance and issues with tools like Sentry and OpenTelemetry.
    • Security & Compliance:
    • Build with a security-first mindset, applying OWASP best practices.
    • Experience operating within SOC 2 or similar compliance frameworks is a plus.
    • Technical Leadership:
    • Own features end-to-end — from technical design through deployment.
    • Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and AI/ML teams to shape technical solutions.

What We’re Looking For:

    • 7+ years of fullstack engineering experience, ideally in startup or fast-paced environments.
    • Proven expertise in Python, FastAPI, React/Next.js TypeScript, and scalable architectures.
    • Deep knowledge of distributed systems, API design, and real-time web interfaces.
    • Experience with PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, Temporal, and cloud platforms.
    • A strong focus on quality, observability, and security in production systems.
    • Excellent communication skills and ability to document technical decisions clearly.
