Full Stack Developers for Impactful Projects

We’re a small but growing team, and your work will have direct impact. You won’t be a cog. You’ll be a voice. What This Role Is Really About Yes, the formal responsibilities include developing and maintaining scalable web applications, collaborating with cross functional teams on new features, writing clean code, and optimizing for performance. You’ll also be expected to stay current with industry trends. But the heart of the role is this: Turning complex challenges into elegant, seamless experiences. Taking ownership of your work from the database to the UI. And being the kind of colleague who both teaches and learns. We’re Hoping You Bring: Proven experience where your hands have touched both ends of the stack. On the front end, deep comfort with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js. You care about more than just function, you care about how it feels to use. On the back end, solid experience with frameworks like Node.js, Python, Ruby on Rails, or Java. You think about data structures, API design, and security. You’re familiar with databases, both SQL and NoSQL. You use Git not just as a tool but as part of your workflow. Experience with cloud services like AWS, Azure, or GCP is a plus. More than anything, we need builders who are meticulous. Excellent problem solving skills and attention to detail are non negotiable. The ability to work collaboratively in a fast paced environment is essential. We move quickly, but we don’t cut corners. What We Offer Beyond the Expected A competitive pay and benefits. Real opportunities for professional growth. A collaborative and innovative work environment where your ideas are heard. Flexible work arrangements. We trust you to do great work, wherever you work best. If this resonates with you, become a vital part of our team. Not just a developer on the roster, but a pillar of what we’re creating together.

Dark Romance Diary and Reading Journal Designer

Hello. I am looking for a designer or two who specializes in creating physical, print ready journals. This is a project for original, formatted, and deeply thematic custom books. Before you reply, please understand this crucial point. I have detailed instruction files. These files are NOT the diary or journal themselves. They are a breakdown of the content, structure, and specific requirements for each item. The diary is not 20 pages long, that is just the length of the instructions. People often mistake the instruction file for the final product. It is not. I will send these instruction files to the candidate I believe can do this properly. I need two items created. 1. A dark romance themed diary. 2. A dark romance themed reading journal. They are separate but complementary. I am open to hiring one skilled person for both, or two separate specialists. The core requirement is that every aspect, from the layout to the subtle visuals, must reflect a dark romance aesthetic. Think obsessive love, gothic undertones, dangerous beauty, and poetic melancholy. Not horror, but a sustained moody, intense, and passionate theme. They must be fully formatted and ready for professional printing. This includes proper margins, bleed, and file setup. A key visual element I require is the use of faded background images on the pages. These should be thematic, subtle, and just barely visible behind the text, not blank or overpowering. This is non negotiable and was a point of failure in previous attempts. I am being direct because my last experiences were unacceptable. One freelancer used AI generation, resulting in poor quality, yellow pages, and terrible images. They also refused the faded background request. Another outsourced the work without my consent, leading to a complete failure. Therefore, please only reach out if you have the proven skill and dedication to handle this from concept to print ready files. You must be able to create custom page layouts, source or create appropriate thematic imagery, and execute the faded background effect seamlessly. If you are this person, please reply with a brief summary of your relevant experience, a link to your portfolio, especially any work with similar thematic or physical journal creation, and confirm your understanding of creating print ready files with subtle background images. I will then review and send the detailed instruction files to selected candidates to discuss further. Thank you for your time.
