Junior Full Stack Developer Jobs in Mexico, ME (NOW HIRING)

POSITION PURPOSE

The Full Stack Engineer builds and owns features across YPO's layered, AI-first platform from the member-facing React experience through the GraphQL API layer, into the AI-powered intelligence and data services that drive personalized leadership insights for YPO's global member base.

This is a high-ownership, end-to-end role spanning the experience layer (React, TypeScript, Apollo GraphQL), API and orchestration (Apigee, Auth0, Redis, Kafka), the AI-powered Leadership Intelligence layer (OpenAI, Google Gemini, Neo4j, Snowflake, dbt, Airflow), systems of record (Salesforce, PostgreSQL), and DevOps/hosting (AWS/Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, Datadog): taking features from concept through production release, instrumenting them, and iterating on data.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own the full feature lifecycle architecture, implementation, code review, QA, deployment, and post-launch monitoring.

• Build responsive React/TypeScript frontends integrated with Optimizely; design Apollo GraphQL schemas and resolvers served through Apigee; build modular Node.js/NestJS backend services using Redis for caching and Kafka for event-driven workflows.

• Design and query PostgreSQL schemas (TypeORM/Prisma); collaborate on Snowflake pipelines and dbt models feeding the Leadership Intelligence layer.

• Integrate OpenAI and Google Gemini APIs for AI-powered discovery, recommendations, and matching; work with Neo4j graph data for relationship-driven insights.

• Instrument features with PostHog and Datadog; design and run A/B experiments and feature-flag rollouts via Optimizely; use data to drive iteration.

• Contribute to architecture decisions, ADRs, and post-incident reviews; address performance bottlenecks across the stack (GraphQL resolvers, N+1 queries, frontend rendering, mobile time-to-interactive).

• Partner with product, design, the Lead Security Engineer, and DevOps to ensure features are secure, well-architected, and operationally sound from the start.
