Full Stack Engineer. Data, Cloud (AWS), Software

About Tone Singleton
Tone Singleton is a technology company building software products across multiple domains, from CRM systems for healthcare clients to mobile learning applications for Mandarin Chinese learners. We operate as a lean engineering team that owns its infrastructure end to end, from AWS CDK stacks to end-user interfaces.

The Role
We're looking for a versatile full-stack engineer to join our small team (currently 3 developers). You'll work across the entire product lifecycle: designing data models, building backend services, crafting frontends, configuring CI/CD, managing infrastructure, and shipping features to production.

What You'll Work On
This isn't a role where you write React components all day. You'll set up Docker containers one morning and design a Microsoft Graph API integration the next.

CRM systems: Vendor and custom, with extensions (PHP/TypeScript).
Websites: Next.js + Tailwind CSS deployed on AWS Amplify. Payload CMS for content management. Storybook for component documentation. SEO and analytics.
Mobile applications: React Native apps. SQLite-based offline-first architecture with Drizzle ORM. iOS deployment via Fastlane.
Developer tooling: Projen-based project scaffolding library that generates standardised TypeScript packages, CDK constructs, Next.js apps, Payload CMS setups, and React Native projects.
Infrastructure: AWS CDK v2 stacks managing multi-account environments, Aurora Serverless PostgreSQL, CloudFront CDN, Route 53, SES email, and Amplify deployments. On-premises VM management with ESXi, Docker, NGINX (SWAG), and Portainer.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities
Design and implement features end-to-end (API → database → UI)
Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions)
Configure production environments including Docker containers, DNS records, and SSL
Write and review pull requests in a trunk-based development workflow (feature branches → develop → main)
Manage dependency updates and security patches
Troubleshoot production issues (connection failures, container lifecycle, build performance)
Build reusable libraries and abstractions (ORM clients, type packages, CDK constructs)
OLTP and OLAP data modeling

Must-Have
Strong TypeScript proficiency across Node.js and browser/React environments
Good Python proficiency with the ecosystem (uv, Pydantic, ruff, etc)
Experience with Next.js (App Router, server components, middleware)
Comfortable with Docker, Linux server administration, and networking fundamentals (DNS, reverse proxies, SSL)
AWS experience. At minimum: Amplify, S3, CloudFront, RDS/Aurora, SES. CDK knowledge is a strong plus.
GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline authoring
Ability to work independently, create well-scoped issues, and drive features to completion without hand-holding
Conventional commits and clean PR hygiene

Nice-to-Have
React Native/mobile
PHP
Microsoft Azure AD / Graph API / SCIM
Projen or JSII
Payload CMS or similar headless CMS
Storybook and component-driven development
AWS CDK v2 with multi-account, multi-environment patterns
SQLite / Drizzle ORM
VMware ESXi / on-premise infrastructure management

What We Value
Ownership: you create the issue, implement the feature, deploy it, and verify it works in production.
Perfectionism: we don't see it as a flaw and prefer slower but better.
Breadth: the team is small. You'll touch PHP, TypeScript, Python, Docker, AWS, NGINX, and more within any given month. Yes, unfortunately, this means occasional context-switching that we're trying to minimise as much as possible, and you'll be part of it.
Clear communication: issues are well-described with context. PRs have descriptive titles. Questions get asked early, not after a week of going in the wrong direction.

How We Work
Small team (you + 3 engineers), flat hierarchy
GitHub-centric: issues with milestones, project boards, typed issues (Bug/Task), Dependabot for automated updates
Projen manages project configuration — no manual package.json edits
Conventional commits enforced via Husky/commitlint
We use AI-assisted development tooling (Kiro) and are building autonomous agent infrastructure (Bedrock AgentCore)
You'll be given a monthly AI tokens allowance
You'll be given a paid AWS SkillBuilder subscription and your AWS certification exams expenses will be covered

Note: Bonus points if you link a GitHub profile that shows you shipping real software across multiple technologies.
