Job Description: We’re looking for a hands-on Full-Stack Developer to build and scale the internal tools and AI-powered applications that support Merkle’s delivery. You’ll own the application layer end-to-end - from the backend up through the frontend - covering backend logic, infrastructure, authentication, deployments, and day-to-day stability.

What You’ll Do

Own and maintain the full application stack across our internal tools: backend, database, auth, and frontend
Design and implement authentication and access control (e.g., SSO with SAML or Okta, multi-tenant data isolation, role-based access)
Write and maintain database schemas, migrations, and access policies (e.g., PostgreSQL with RLS and RPC functions)
Build and manage serverless backend functions (e.g., for application logic and API integrations)
Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines and manage deployments across environments (e.g., DEV, UAT, PROD)
Build and maintain modern frontends (e.g., React, Vite, TypeScript)
Debug and resolve issues across the stack (e.g., build errors, networking, misconfigured services, 5xx errors)
Collaborate with the AI/LLM side of the team to integrate model outputs cleanly into the application
Take ownership from idea → build → run → improve

What You Bring

3+ years in software engineering (full-stack, AI, or platform development)
Experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript stacks (React, https://jobeax.com/link/Z30sZYC3jcRenVso, https://jobeax.com/link/JSd7UYCSg572jJDY), frontend and backend
Experience with Docker and self-hosted infrastructure, not just managed cloud services
Knowledge and experience with multi-tenant application patterns
Solid problem-solving skills and strong ownership mindset

Strong advantage:

Familiarity with backend-as-a-service platforms (e.g., Supabase, Firebase) for auth, database, storage, and serverless functions
Exposure to alternative JS/TS runtimes (e.g., Deno, Bun)

Nice to Have

Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic)
Familiarity with SSE streaming or real-time data patterns
Familiarity with MarTech platforms (e.g., Adobe, Salesforce, CDPs)
Experience with authentication systems (e.g., OAuth2, SAML, SSO)

Why This Role

Build products, not projects
Direct impact on how Merkle delivers at scale
Work at the intersection of AI, engineering, and platform thinking
High ownership and room to shape solutions

What We Offer

A dynamic, international work environment with colleagues from around the globe.
A challenging position at a successful company in a growing market.
A fun and inclusive culture-think foosball, table tennis, themed events, and team parties.
3 extra days off (yes, at Merkle we take your well-being very seriously) - in addition to 25 annual vacation days, there are 3 Well-being Days.
2 Social Impact Days - you can volunteer for a charity of your choice.
Extensive learning and development opportunities, including a wide range of personal and online training.
A hybrid work model, with 2-3 days in the office and the rest working from home.
A competitive salary and excellent secondary benefits.
