Junior Fullstack Developer (Remote) | Building an MVP from Scratch 🚀 Are you tired of endless tutorials and theoretical projects? Do you want to ship real, functional code that actually gets used? I’m looking for a hands-on Junior Fullstack Developer to collaborate on building an MVP for a content delivery system. I don’t need a corporate veteran or a security expert, I need a builder with curiosity, logic, and the drive to ship things fast. What we are building: We are keeping the tech stack lean and efficient. We’ll be working with Open Source tools, n8n for automation, Telegram, and a modular architecture. The goal is to move fast, test functionality, and build a scalable foundation. What you DON'T need: You don’t need to be a cybersecurity specialist. We aren’t implementing complex, bank level security protocols right now that phase comes later with dedicated specialists. Your focus is purely on functionality, logic, and clean code. Why this role? You will learn how to architect a digital business from the ground up. This isn’t about fixing Jira tickets; it’s about making technical decisions and seeing them impact the product immediately. Interested? If you have 15–20 hours a week to dedicate to this remote project and you’re ready to get your hands dirty, send me a DM with a brief summary of a project or workflow you’ve built that you’re proud of.
