Hire a Full-Stack Developer.
Ship product end-to-end — React on the front, Node or Python on the back, CI that actually runs.
Pre-vetted, full-time dedicated, with HR & payroll handled.
Overview
What a Full-Stack Developer actually does.
Full-stack engineers are the backbone of most Canadian SMB product teams. They own features from schema to UI, work async-fluently on an Eastern-overlapping schedule, and integrate with a codebase on day one rather than day thirty.
Responsibilities
- Own features end-to-end — API, data model, UI, tests
- Review teammates' PRs and keep the bar on async communication
- Ship to production behind feature flags with observability baked in
- Pair with designers to turn Figma into accessible, responsive components
- Participate in on-call rotation where applicable

How We Vet This Role
Role-scoped, not one-size-fits-all.
Every full-stack candidate runs a time-boxed coding exercise that touches an API endpoint, a data model, and a UI component — the same surface they'd own in the first week on your team.
