Hey!!  Update Your CV Like a Pro. HERE are Tips from an Experienced Recruiter

Product Developer at Smartness, Remote (Europe)

We are looking for a Product-Oriented Software Engineer with a strong product mindset, working with the same care and ownership as if the product were their own. You will be part of a cross-functional team, delivering end-to-end features with Node.js on the backend and Vue.js on the frontend. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with Product Managers, shape product direction, and take responsibility from concept to deployment — making decisions that have a direct impact on performance, usability, and business outcomes.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Designing, developing, and delivering features across backend and frontend.
• Collaborating with Product Managers and designers to define solutions and set product direction.
• Building scalable backend services and user-friendly frontend features.
• Making independent technical and product decisions focused on quality and impact.
• Proactively identifying improvements and proposing solutions.
• Thriving in a fast-paced, collaborative, and product-driven environment.

What Are We Looking For?

• 3+ years of experience as a Fullstack Developer
• Strong proficiency in Node.js and Vue.js (Vue 2 or 3)
• Experience working in product-centric environments, ideally with startup or scale-up culture
• Confidence in building without detailed specs — you’re comfortable talking to PMs and defining solutions together
• Solid experience working with AI-powered developer tools and prompt-based workflows
• Autonomy and strong decision-making skills — you act like an owner
• A mindset geared toward learning, iteration, and fast execution

This isn’t a place for code-monkeys. It’s for people who love product, love building, and want to use AI to move fast and smart.

What do we offer?

• Work in a small and top-performing team that moves extremely fast where you are extremely important.
• Work without having to deal with jerks and ego-maniacs.
• The opportunity to join one of the best travel-tech sales teams in Europe.
• A place where your talent can blossom.
• An environment where mistakes are allowed – we make bold choices to achieve ambitious goals, learn from mistakes, and move forward.
• A place where your voice matters – meetings provide space for new ideas and projects, regardless of your role or seniority.
• Continuous growth – we challenge the status quo, renewing our sales processes and approaches to meet challenging goals.
• We have fun while working! We are easygoing people.
• Leverage state-of-the-art software and automation frameworks to optimize development processes and enhance focus on delivering value to clients and achieving business goals.
• Remote working with frequent opportunities to meet up.
• Fun and enriching experiences – unforgettable team-building events that go beyond the usual outings.
• Competitive salaries – as a meritocratic team, we recognize talent and hard work, rewarding them appropriately.
