Senior Full-Stack (Vue.js/Python) Engineer - Brazil

Our engineering team at Space Inch is growing! We are looking for talented engineers to join the company, and help drive our technical initiatives forward. Following a string of successful hires, we’re again expanding our engineering team.

We’re currently looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to contribute to one of our longest-running and most successful projects. You’ll be part of an established Space Inch engineering team while also collaborating closely with our client’s team - a major global FinTech corporation in the field of investment management with multiple long-term initiatives underway.

For this position, we're looking primarily for a Vue.js/Python expert to drive one of clients' workstreams but also someone who views programming languages as tools and is excited about leveraging modern AI workflows to build impactful solutions.

Our Mission, Vision, and Values

At Space Inch, we prioritize alignment with our clients and team, ensuring a deep understanding of their needs. We are committed to delivering exceptional work while supporting the personal and professional growth of our team members. 

About Working at Space Inch

• Global Footprint: Our team is around 80 people, primarily based in Croatia, but also with members in South America, the EU, and the US; the product team mostly being in the US, and engineering in Croatia and Brazil
• Remote-First: We are remote-first, but occasional travel may be required, e.g. for our annual company retreat, or meeting the client
• Long-Term Vision: We work on end-to-end projects with a long-term vision
• True Work-Life Balance: We strongly support work-life balance for our team members, even though we work in different time zones

Requirements

• 5+ years of professional software development experience in Vue.js and Python: these are the core technologies involved in the workstream but we also value your ability to adapt to new stacks if needed in the future and collaborate with the team to ship value
• AI-Augmented Workflow: Experience with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Claude, Cursor, etc.) as a natural part of your workflow, to accelerate development, learn new stacks quickly, and automate routine tasks
• Ownership mindset: Capable of owning own workstream, making sure that the associated development work is "in the green" while keeping an eye open for any potential upgrades that would address client's outstanding needs
• Communication: Excellent English communication skills, both written and spoken; proactive in communicating with all involved stakeholders on the client side and internally at Space Inch
• Adaptability: Ability to broaden or shift technical focus to meet evolving project goals - whether front-end, back-end, or new technologies
• Must be based in Brazil
• Must be available for daily overlap of 5-6 working hours with PST

Key Responsibilities

• Collaborate with clients and business stakeholders to deeply understand and clarify business needs and translate them into technical solutions
• Navigate the entire product lifecycle as a full-stack engineer: from requirements gathering, scoping, and planning, through to implementation and deployment, leveraging advanced AI tools to accelerate and optimize every stage
• Own the Workstream you'll be assigned - break down and explain technical concepts clearly during client interactions and team discussions while keeping development on track
• Move fluidly across the application layers, utilizing AI tools to rapidly upskill and deliver on varied engineering challenges. While our primary stack is TypeScript/Vue.js on the frontend and Python on the backend, we value strong foundational engineering skills that allow you to adapt as project directions evolve.
• Write clean, maintainable, and scalable code guided by strong development principles
• Conduct code reviews and actively participate in team knowledge sharing 

Typical Challenges You'll be Solving

• Projects that span multiple technologies - you'll need to be a fast learner, not a deep specialist in everything
• Stakeholders who can describe their desired direction of development, rather than a specific feature - you turn that into a specification
• Making independent decisions when the answer isn't clear, and communicating your reasoning
• Managing the balance between respecting deadlines and system stability, taking into account both quality and quantity

Qualities for Success

• Communicative & Responsible: You embrace taking charge and responsibility for a workstream while taking care to keep all stakeholders looped in
• Solutions-Driven Mindset: You’re proactive and focused on solving the client's actual problem rather than just writing code
• Curious & Tech-Savvy: You actively experiment with AI tooling and modern workflows to boost your productivity

This Job is Right for You If

• You are a versatile engineer who can tackle any problem with the right tools
• You think in systems, not just features
• You know how to maintain high engineering standards and thoughtful delivery, even when moving at a rapid pace
• You're genuinely curious - about technology, about your clients' domain, about getting better

This Job is not Right for You If

• You prefer to stay away from client communication
• You're skeptical of AI tools and prefer to avoid them
• You prefer to receive detailed specifications rather than shape them
• You require constant supervision and need heavy direction to stay productive

Benefits

What's In It for You

• Real Impact: Real influence on technical decisions, tooling choices, and project direction. 
• Compensation: $4.000,00 – $6.000/monthly for B2B engagement, based on experience and skills.
• Remote-first setup
• Health & Wellbeing: 100% paid sick leave + annual health checkup
• Stay active: Wellness subsidy
• Continuous Growth: An education budget specifically designed to fuel your learning and help you expand your knowledge base. 
• Extra perks: Referral bonus
