This hire will carry meaningful breadth — contributing across product development, platform security and compliance, and the quality disciplines that keep enterprise customers on side.

Documoto's enterprise customer base has high expectations: a healthy product roadmap, a reliable platform, and a commitment to security. This person will be a direct contributor to all three. Responsibilities Full Stack Development Design, build, and maintain features across both front-end (Vue.js) and back-end (Java/Kotlin) layers of the Documoto SaaS platform.

Write clean, modular, well-tested code following object-oriented design principles. Participate in code reviews and hold a high bar for what ships. Collaborate with the Director, Architecture & Innovation and Product on scoping, requirements, and effort estimation — translating customer and business needs into well-defined engineering tasks.

Use AI-powered development tools (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot) as standard instruments throughout the development workflow. Contribute to platform architecture decisions and help improve engineering practices over time. Security Promote secure coding practices, conduct security-focused code reviews, and support vulnerability identification and remediation.

Maintain and evolve the risk register in coordination with leadership and DevOps. Platform Quality and Release Contribute to QA disciplines — test coverage, regression strategy, and acceptance criteria validation — ensuring features are reliable before they reach customers. Support release coordination: maintaining release checklists, communicating timelines, and ensuring pre-release steps are completed consistently.

Identify and resolve issues proactively; contribute to post-release reviews and continuous improvement of the delivery process. DevOps and Infrastructure Awareness Work alongside DevOps to understand and contribute to CI/CD pipelines, cloud resource management, and deployment practices. Support monitoring, logging, and alerting improvements that help the team detect and resolve issues faster.

Enforce least-privilege access and secure infrastructure configuration as part of everyday development practice. Qualifications A degree is not required. Practical depth in full stack development and a security-aware engineering mindset carry more weight than credentials.

Full Stack Development - Solid, hands-on experience building and shipping features across both front-end and back-end in a SaaS environment. Vue.js and Java or Kotlin experience is a strong advantage. Security and Compliance - Working knowledge of application security fundamentals — authentication, authorization, secure API design, access control.

Engineering Discipline - Writes clean, tested, maintainable code. Comfortable in Agile workflows, participates meaningfully in code reviews, and takes ownership of features end to end. Cloud and DevOps Awareness - Familiar with AWS or equivalent cloud environments.

Comfortable with CI/CD pipelines and the infrastructure concepts that underpin a reliable SaaS platform. Communication - Can work effectively within a small team remotely. Clear communicator — in code, in documentation, and in conversation with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

AI-Assisted Development - Comfortable using AI-powered development tools as everyday instruments in the workflow. Candidates who are resistant to AI-assisted development will not be a good fit for this team. Who Fits This Role: Documoto is a lean, close-knit team.

The culture runs on trust, ownership, and showing up for the work. This is the profile that fits. Broad by Nature - Does not need a narrow lane to operate effectively.

Comfortable moving between a feature build, a security review, and a release checklist in the same week.
