Trainee Full Stack Developer Jobs in Florida (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary:
Hillpointe is a fully integrated real estate development and investment management firm focused on developing market-rate workforce housing across the Sun Belt. They are seeking a Full Stack Engineer to build HPOS, a property management platform, from scratch, involving database design, API contracts, and frontend components. The role emphasizes a zero-to-one cadence in development, allowing for significant impact on the platform's foundational architecture.
Responsibilities:
• React surfaces: First-generation operator and resident-facing applications. React 18 with TypeScript, Vite, TanStack Query v5, React Hook Form, Zod. Component composition against the PDS Foundation design system. The patterns set here will be inherited by every surface that follows.
• Service layer: TypeScript services on Node 20 LTS with NestJS or Express. OpenAPI contracts shared with the front end through code generation. JWT and OAuth flows, RBAC enforcement, structured audit logs, request-scoped tracing. The shared libraries that every future service will depend on.
• Postgres data model: Multi-tenant schema design on Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server. Tenant isolation strategy, normalization tradeoffs, index strategy from day one, audit trails baked into the data model. Migrations through Prisma or Knex.
• Warehouse integration: Stand up change data capture from Postgres into the Bronze layer of Enzo, our medallion warehouse. Establish read models surfaced from Gold-layer views back into product. Contract-first design with the data team.
• Event-driven backbone: Asynchronous workflows over Azure Service Bus. Idempotent consumers, dead-letter handling, exactly-once where the business requires it. The async patterns the rest of the platform will adopt.
• Infrastructure and Observability: Bicep modules for App Service, Functions, Container Apps, Service Bus, Key Vault, and managed identities. Multi-stage Azure DevOps pipelines. Structured logs, OpenTelemetry, and SLO definitions in place before we ever take production traffic.
Qualifications:
Required:
• Five-plus years in production: building web applications. You have taken a system from greenfield to production, or rebuilt the foundations of one that needed it.
• TypeScript depth: generics, conditional types, discriminated unions, branded types. You know when to reach for them and when to stop.
• React expertise: hooks, render optimization, error boundaries, Suspense. You can diagnose a re-render storm and you've written a custom hook that earned its keep.
• Production Node.js: event loop awareness, streaming and backpressure, memory profiling, graceful shutdown, structured logging.
• Relational data modeling: schema design, normalization tradeoffs, index strategy, partitioning, query plan analysis. You catch N+1 in code review.
• API design: REST conventions, idempotency, versioning, pagination, OpenAPI specifications, authentication patterns (OAuth 2.0, JWT, session).
• Azure or equivalent: production experience with App Service, Functions, identity, networking, observability. AWS or GCP at the same depth is fine.
• CI/CD and IaC discipline: pipeline-as-code, environment promotion, automated test gates, infrastructure as reviewed artifacts, no clicks in the portal.
Preferred:
• Postgres extensions in production: pg_stat_statements, pgvector, pgcrypto, PostGIS, logical replication.
• Lakehouse and BI tooling at production scale: Microsoft Fabric, Power BI Premium with DAX, Python and PySpark on the data plane.
• Event-sourced architectures, CQRS, sagas, or domain-driven design applied to a real codebase.
• LLM-assisted engineering: Claude Code, Cursor, or retrieval-augmented internal tooling shipped to other engineers.
• Real estate, property management, financial services, or other regulated-industry domain experience.
