Senior Product-Minded App Developer

**About The Role

** ShowPhaze is looking for a product-minded App Developer to take ownership of and evolve our internal platform into a refined, scalable system. This role goes beyond writing code - you’ll be expected to understand the full scope of our business by working closely with every department, from finance to operations.

Our app is mission-critical. It powers scheduling, contractor communication, payroll, estimates, invoicing, and on-site workflows for large-scale event productions nationwide.

The foundation is solid. Now we need someone who can bring structure, clarity, and a cohesive user experience to what has historically been built in pieces.

**What You’ll Work On

**

• Improve and unify the overall UX/UI across the platform
• Refactor and organize existing features into a more intentional system architecture
• Enhance core functionality:

• * Scheduling and crew coordination 

  • Contractor communications (in-app chat, SMS, email notifications)
  • Payroll workflows
  • Estimates and invoicing
  • QR code check-in systems
  • Identify and eliminate friction points that slow down operations
  • Collaborate with leadership to define product direction and roadmap
  • Integrate AI-assisted workflows (including Claude) into development and operations
  • Contribute to a “vibe coding” workflow—rapidly translating operational needs into functional product improvements
  • Work alongside or coordinate with external developers when needed to maintain steady progress

**Current State of the Product

** * The platform is stable and has never experienced a full crash * Issues do arise but are typically resolved quickly * Feature set is robust, but the UX can be fragmented and inefficient * Development has historically lacked a unified long-term plan * We are actively shifting toward a more structured, product-driven approach with guidance from an advisor

****What We’re Looking For

** * Professional Experience: Minimum 5+ years of proven experience in Backend Development (4+ years if demonstrating exceptional seniority in architectural design) and minimum 3+ years of proven experience in FrontEnd Development. * Node.js Ecosystem: Expert proficiency in Node.js and Express, building APIs and integrating with 3rd party systems. * React Ecosystem: Working experience in FE development (css/js/html) using React (NextJS is a plus). * Database Management: Strong experience with NoSQL databases, specifically MongoDB and Mongoose ODM. Must be capable of query optimization and schema design for high-load environments. * Infrastructure & Cloud: Deep understanding of AWS Services (S3 for storage, CloudFront for content delivery, EKS for orchestration, and SES/SNS for messaging). * Performance Tooling: Proficiency with Redis for caching and session management. * Legacy Management: Experience refactoring monolithic codebases, supporting API versioning, and replacing legacy libraries (e.g., migrating from Moment.js to modern alternatives).

**Advanced Competencies (Nice To Have)

** * Networking: Understanding of CDNs, cache control headers, and cloud-based networking. * DevOps: Experience building and optimizing CI/CD pipelines. * Security Mastery: Proven experience with application security (e.g. API authentication), managing CVEs, scheduling framework migrations, and setting up WAF/DDoS protections.

**How You’ll Get Up To Speed

** To be effective, you’ll need to understand how ShowPhaze operates at every level. That means:

* Spending time with operations, finance, and field workflows * Observing how crews are scheduled, managed, and paid * Identifying where the app helps—and where it slows things down 

We don’t expect you to guess. We expect you to learn the system from the inside out.

**Work Environment

** * Fully remote role with flexibility * Opportunity (and strong encouragement) to spend time onsite in Austin, Texas

• Onsite experience includes:
• Direct collaboration with the core team
• Immersion in company workflows and culture
• Access to ShowPhaze HQ amenities:
  • Cabins for lodging
  • Swimming pool, fishing pond
  • Access to a 600-acre recreational park (cycling, basketball, etc.)
  • And yes—BBQ, breakfast tacos, and time on the water

**Industry Context

** ShowPhaze operates in the live event production space — a fast-paced, high-demand environment where timing and execution are critical.

• Spring and fall are peak seasons
• Expect periods of high intensity and deep focus
• The work you do directly impacts real-time operations in the field

**Why This Role Matters

** This position is central to the future of ShowPhaze. The platform you help shape will:

• Improve operational efficiency across the company
• Strengthen relationships with contractors and clients
• Serve as the foundation for a future SaaS product

You’ll be joining a small, highly dynamic team with the opportunity to build something meaningful — and see it used at scale in real-world environments.

If you’re someone who can bring order to complexity, improve systems with intention, and build for both usability and scale, this is a role worth stepping into.
