Senior Full Stack Engineer (Elixir Backend Focus)
Title: Full Stack Engineer (Elixir Backend Focus)
Location: Remote (Zug, Switzerland)
We're looking for a **AI-first Full Stack Engineer** with a strong **backend** and **Elixir** expertise to own partner APIs and dashboards that power the qiibee ecosystem **(partnered Miles & More, Etihad Guest, and more).**
In this role, you'll combine deep backend expertise with AI-powered workflows to take features through every stage β from architecture and coding to deployment, monitoring and ongoing improvement β across a double-entry ledger, partner-facing APIs and the React interfaces on top of them.
You'll be a key point of ownership for our core platform, ensuring every partner integration is correct, reliable and well documented β **supported by AI at every step.**
## Tasks
- Design, build and operate **Elixir** services with Phoenix, Ecto and OTP: APIs, workers and background jobs.
- Build and evolve our partner-facing **REST APIs**, including versioning, outbound webhooks and delivery guarantees.
- Work on money-adjacent systems where correctness comes first: ledgers, points balances, settlement and reconciliation.
- Own frontend features end to end in **React** and **TypeScript**, from the admin and partner dashboards to the API behind them.
- Use AI coding agents **(Claude Code)** daily to move faster, while reviewing their output.
- Review code substantively, and act as a second pair of eyes on system correctness.
- Write the reasoning down: clear PR descriptions, architecture notes, and docs updated in the same pull request as the code.
- Collaborate with product and our infrastructure team on deployment, monitoring and security on **AWS**.
## Requirements
- **AI first:** Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor or similar) every day.
- 6+ years of professional software engineering, with 4+ years on the backend.
- 3+ years of production **Elixir with Phoenix**, Ecto and OTP, shipped and operated, not learned on the side.
- Strong PostgreSQL: real SQL, transaction semantics and performance tuning.
- Solid **REST API** design and background job processing (Oban or equivalent) with retries.
- Proven experience in the loyalty, travel tech, payments or FinTech industries.
- 3+ years of React and TypeScript, strong enough to own a frontend feature outright: components, state, forms, validation and error handling.
- Working knowledge of AWS (ECS, RDS, S3), Docker and CI/CD with GitHub Actions.
- Fluent in English
**Nice to have π―**
- Built features on top of LLM APIs or AI agent workflows
- Redux Toolkit / RTK Query, LiveView, Node.js (Express) or GraphQL.
- Multi-tenant B2B platforms, multi-region architectures, observability (AppSignal, Sentry, Datadog) and SOC 2 exposure.
