A5 Labs

APJ

Description

Location: Remote

Working Hours: US overlap preferred

A5 Labs is looking for a strong product-minded full-stack engineer to help build consumer-facing gaming and entertainment products.

We are not simply looking for someone who matches a list of technologies. We want an engineer with strong product instincts, good frontend taste, and the ability to turn ideas into polished products that users genuinely enjoy.

What You’ll Do

  • Build and ship consumer-facing features across frontend and backend
  • Own features from product idea through architecture, implementation, testing, and production
  • Create polished, responsive, and intuitive user experiences
  • Work closely with product and design to improve usability and interaction quality
  • Build reliable APIs, business logic, and data models
  • Use modern AI development tools to move quickly without sacrificing quality

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of full-stack engineering experience
  • Strong TypeScript and Node.js experience
  • Strong React experience
  • Solid PostgreSQL and backend API design skills
  • Experience building real consumer-facing products
  • Strong understanding of frontend UX, performance, responsiveness, and accessibility
  • High ownership and the ability to ship independently
  • Comfortable using tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or GitHub Copilot

What Will Make You Stand Out

  • A strong portfolio, personal products, open-source work, or technically unusual projects
  • Clear product taste and attention to frontend details
  • Experience with real-time products, payments, marketplaces, gaming, social products, or high-engagement applications
  • Evidence that you have built something from zero to one
  • A genuine interest in building, experimenting, and solving difficult problems
  • Poker or gaming experience is welcome, but not required.

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation with annual salary reviews
  • Up to 5 weeks of annual leave
  • Quarterly performance bonuses of up to 100% of 3 months’ salary
  • Fully remote work with flexible working hours
  • Real ownership of features shipped to real users
  • Direct collaboration with teams working across AI, gaming, and consumer products
