Senior/Middle+ Engineer

Vast.Ventures | Remote (Philippines) Salary: $1800 - $2,000 per month

Location: Fully Remote 

The Opportunity

Vast.Ventures is a stable, real-world woodworking business. We are building an in-house engineering team to develop and maintain Sylvaris.app - our internal operational platform.

We are looking for a reliable, high-output Senior/Middle+ Engineer. This is not a role for a "visionary" who wants to spend weeks debating architecture. We need someone who enjoys writing clean code, closing tasks consistently, and following a professional workflow without being micromanaged.

We believe that high pay comes with high professional standards. We expect you to manage yourself with zero hand-holding:

• Operational Discipline: You follow the workflow - updating task statuses, leaving meaningful comments, and documenting your progress.
• End-to-End Responsibility: You test your own code before it reaches anyone else. "Done" means tested, working, and deployed.
• Proactive Reporting: You don’t wait for the manager to ask for an update. You report results, flag blockers immediately, and provide daily transparency.
• Strategic Decision Making: When faced with multiple solutions, you present options, explain the pros/cons, and recommend the best path for the business.

• The "Plain English" Rule: You can explain complex technical architecture to non-technical founders in simple, logical terms.
• Low Ego, High Impact: You argue with logic and data, not emotion. You listen, adapt, and prioritize team harmony and project goals.

• Develop and scale our stack: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL.
• Turn prototypes into robust, production-ready systems.
• Bridge the gap between physical woodworking operations and digital efficiency.

• 4+ years of Full-Stack experience.
• Expertise in React, Next.js, Node.js, and SQL.
• Exceptional self-organization and a "No-Drama" attitude.
