Full-Stack Software Engineer (React, Node.js, AWS)

Full-Stack Software Engineer (React, Node.js, AWS) — Remote LATAM

About TalentXM

TalentXM is hiring a Full-Stack Software Engineer to join a distributed product squad building an Education member-management experience for administrators, instructors, and students—covering a web operator/instructor portal, a mobile member app, and CRM/payments integrations.

This is a full-time, home-office-based role with core hours aligned to Eastern Time, designed for engineers who thrive in distributed collaboration and enjoy shipping product that supports real users in the fitness/wellness space.

The product you’ll help build

You’ll contribute to an Education member management platform that helps administrators, instructors, and students manage Education workflows in one cohesive system—pairing a web portal experience with mobile access and operational integrations (CRM and payments).

You’ll be working alongside a Tech Lead for guidance and momentum, while you take strong ownership of your features—from technical discovery through implementation, testing, deployment, and iteration based on feedback.

The partner team behind this work is a fitness and wellness technology firm that positions itself around making technology relevant, accessible, functional, and beautiful for the brands it supports.

What you’ll do

You’ll work across front end, back end, and cloud to deliver a reliable, user-centered platform. The stack is centered on React (web UI), Node.js (services/APIs), and AWS (cloud infrastructure and services).

Key responsibilities include:

• Build and maintain front-end components and page-level experiences with React, focusing on clarity, performance, and maintainability.
• Develop back-end services and APIs in Node.js, including REST and GraphQL endpoints, using patterns appropriate for production systems (security, observability, error handling, and scalability).
• Design and evolve APIs in Express (and/or equivalent Node frameworks), integrating third-party services—including CRM and payment workflows—safely and predictably.
• Work with relational and non-relational databases, aligning schema/modeling decisions with real product needs (query efficiency, data integrity, and operational simplicity).
• Ensure the application is responsive and cross-platform friendly (web and mobile touchpoints), collaborating with design partners to deliver polished UI.
• Build accessibility-aware interfaces guided by modern accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG), so the product works for a broad range of users.
• Collaborate in a Scrum-based delivery model—planning, delivering, reviewing, and continuously improving as a team.
• Contribute via pull requests and code reviews, using Git-based collaboration patterns that improve quality and share knowledge across the team.
• Apply security and data-protection best practices (threat-aware development, secure-by-default patterns), using widely recognized guidance like OWASP’s Top 10 as a baseline reference.
• Use GenAI tools to improve efficiency (e.g., accelerating drafts, tests, or review workflows) while remaining accountable for correctness, security, and maintainability of the final code.

• Comfort working in a Scrum environment (iterative delivery, transparency, adaptation).
• Working knowledge of server-side rendering concepts (and how SSR impacts architecture, performance, and user experience).
• Strong focus on application security and data protection, applying standard secure-development guidance.
