The Junior Full Stack Software Developer role is an entry‑level position designed for fresh graduates or candidates with up to two years of hands‑on experience through internships, freelance projects, or personal ventures. Reporting to senior engineers, the junior developer will be immersed in the full software development lifecycle, from gathering requirements and prototyping UI components to implementing backend services and deploying features to production. This role offers a unique opportunity to work on real‑world, high‑traffic web applications that serve a global audience, while receiving mentorship from seasoned engineers across the Google ecosystem. Key responsibilities include: 1. Designing and implementing responsive front‑end interfaces using React.js, TypeScript, HTML, and CSS. 2. Building and maintaining RESTful APIs and server‑side logic with Node.js, Express.js, and Next.js. 3. Writing efficient SQL queries for relational databases (PostgreSQL) and interacting with NoSQL stores such as MongoDB. 4. Ensuring code quality through unit testing, code reviews, and adherence to Google’s engineering best practices. 5. Debugging and troubleshooting both front‑end and back‑end issues, and supporting production deployments. 6. Collaborating closely with product managers, UX designers, and QA engineers to translate business requirements into technical solutions. 7. Contributing to continuous integration pipelines, containerization with Docker, and cloud deployments on Google Cloud Platform. 8.
