About Stoke Studio

Stoke Studio is a web and mobile software studio. We design and ship full-stack TypeScript apps for our clientsâand for products we run ourselves. Weâre intentionally small (currently 4 people), hands-on, and close to the workâno layers, real ownership, and direct impact.

What youâll do

• Design, build, and maintain TypeScript/Node.js services and APIs (GraphQL).
• Partner with product/design to scope and deliver features end-to-end (from idea to deploy).
• Collaborate with frontend developers to integrate backend services with web and mobile applications.
• Model relational data and author performant SQL with PostgreSQL (indexing, migrations, query tuning).
• Implement auth, permissions, rate limiting, and caching layers (e.g., Redis) to keep things fast and secure.
• Design and iterate on AI features, utilizing LLM APIs to build agents, workflows, and tools.
• Raise the bar on code quality with tests (unit/integration), observability (logs/metrics/traces), and participate in code reviews.
• Improve developer experience by optimizing and maintaining CI/CD GitHub Actions and supporting our monorepos (Turborepo/PNPM).
• Manage deployment processes across our infrastructure platforms (Render, Aptible).
• Contribute to our stack evolution as we explore new and various technologies (TanStack DB, Electric SQL, etc).

Youâre a great fit if you have

• 5+ years of professional software development experience.
• Deep TypeScript + Node.js experience building production backends.
• Strong SQL fundamentals; experience with PostgreSQL in production.
• API design chops (GraphQL or REST), pagination, error handling, and versioning.
• Practical security knowledge and performance tuning.
• Testing habits (unit/integration), pragmatic attention to DX and code quality.
• Clear, friendly communication and a bias for velocity and shipping.
• Nice-to-have: Prisma, GraphQL schema design, React Native/Expo familiarity for API consumers.
