Role

Who you are

5+ years of professional experience as a full stack developer
You have excellent back-end or systems programming knowledge, we use the latest versions of PHP and MySQL but we’d love to also hear about your skills in other languages too
Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, and modern web frameworks
Experience building and scaling backend systems with REST/GraphQL APIs
Solid understanding of databases (SQL & NoSQL)
Hands-on experience with AI/ML libraries, APIs, or platforms (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, n8n, etc)
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
Strong problem-solving skills, curiosity, and a passion for innovation
You have experience with back-end tools like Git, unit testing, continuous integration and Linux command line skills
You're empathetic and can work both independently as well as collaboratively in a team environment
You're able to clearly articulate your knowledge and reasoning to technical and non-technical team members
Experience in B2B SaaS platforms

Desirable

Experience integrating AI into development workflows (CI/CD, automated code reviews, intelligent testing)
Prior experience leading projects or mentoring engineers
Understanding of prompt engineering and LLM fine-tuning
Knowledge of micro-services and event-driven architectures

What the job involves

We are looking for a Full Stack Developer with a passion for AI to help lead our development toward incorporating AI into our processes and products
This role will be central to shaping the future of Optix as we build innovative AI-based solutions for the global flexible workspace industry
This is a great opportunity for a developer who has experience in SaaS and is excited to harness AI as part of their toolkit
AI-Driven Development: Incorporate AI tools and frameworks into our development lifecycle to accelerate productivity, testing, and deployment. Identify opportunities to automate and optimize internal engineering processes
Product Development: Design and build full stack applications with a focus on AI-powered features (e.g., intelligent recommendations, workflow automation, predictive analytics). Architect and maintain scalable APIs, backend services, and integrations with AI/ML platforms. Work with large datasets, fine-tuning models, and leveraging third-party AI APIs where appropriate
Technical Leadership: Serve as a thought leader for AI adoption across Optix—guiding best practices, setting standards, and mentoring other engineers. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate business goals into technical solutions

Our take

Making the most out of your flexible workspace isn't easy. Optix helps ease this problem by connecting users with the community, resources, and services that workplaces have to offer.

As a spin-off of the successful coworking space company ShareDesk, Optix has had an advantage over its competitors since the beginning. The company has attracted businesses like 1880, The Cloud Room, and Thrive, and has impressively increased its revenue year on year.

The increase in remote and flexible workers has paid off for Optix, and the company is well-positioned to scale dramatically over the coming years. It will need to innovate its app and attract more coworking brands if it is to consolidate its progress.
