Senior Full Stack Engineer (f/m/d) - Berlin | Germany | EMEA

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you'll work on shaping Hygraph's product, contributing to its CMS core, extending its platform capabilities, and helping bring AI-powered features to life. You'll collaborate with PMs and customers, using modern AI-assisted development tools to accelerate development.

Requirements

• Significant experience (typically 6+ years) building and owning production systems, with strong full-stack skills in JavaScript/TypeScript and deep backend expertise (ideally Node.js).
• Experience building user interfaces, ideally with React.
• Experience developing well-tested APIs (GraphQL and/or REST).
• Strong understanding of backend systems, scalability, and performance fundamentals.
• Solid knowledge of relational databases (especially PostgreSQL), including schema design and query optimization.
• Active use of AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Cursor, Codex, or similar) in your workflow, or a clear, demonstrated eagerness to adopt them.
• Ability to work with ambiguity: rough prototypes, evolving requirements, and imperfect information. You use judgment and experience to fill the gaps.
• Strong product sense. You think about why you're building something, not just how. You care about the customer experience, not just the code.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills. You speak up when something's off, share credit when things go well, and give feedback with respect and clarity.
• A growth trajectory that shows steady improvement. You don't have to know everything, but you need to demonstrate that you learn fast and keep raising your own bar.
