### Description
StudioBinder is looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer to join our engineering team.
StudioBinder builds production management software used by filmmakers, agencies, brands, and creative teams to plan and collaborate on productions. The platform helps teams write scripts, build shot lists, generate schedules and call sheets, and manage productions from development through shooting.
Alongside our platform, we run one of the largest educational resources in the production industry. Our blog reaches 1M+ readers each month, and our YouTube channel has over 2M+ subscribers.
If you enjoy building thoughtful products, solving technical challenges, and improving tools used by creators around the world, we’d love to hear from you.
## What You’ll Do
As part of the engineering team, you’ll help build and maintain StudioBinder’s web application.
Your work will involve developing and improving both the front-end and back-end of our platform, contributing to features across the application stack, and ensuring the system remains scalable, secure, and performant.
You’ll collaborate with designers, product thinkers, and other engineers to refine ideas and implement features that help production teams plan and manage their work more efficiently.
Much of the role involves translating complex workflows into intuitive product features that support real-world production needs.
## A Typical Day
A typical day might begin by reviewing current tasks or features in progress and syncing briefly with the engineering team to discuss priorities.
From there, you may spend time implementing a new feature, improving an existing workflow, or debugging an issue within the application. Some parts of the day might involve refining API endpoints, adjusting database structures, or improving the front-end experience.
Later in the day, you might review pull requests, collaborate with teammates on implementation approaches, or work through edge cases that arise as new features take shape.
Some days are focused on building new capabilities, others on improving performance or reliability. The goal is always the same: ship clean, maintainable code that helps creators run their productions more effectively.
## What We’re Looking For
You might be a great fit if you:
- Have 8+ years of experience building robust web applications
- Are comfortable working across the full stack
- Have experience with technologies such as
MongoDB, Express, Angular, Node.js, HTML5, and CSS
- Understand application architecture, performance, and security considerations
- Have experience designing and implementing data storage solutions
- Collaborate well with engineers, designers, and product teams
- Take ownership of your work and enjoy solving complex problems
Experience with AWS infrastructure or cloud-based systems is a strong plus.
