Job description
- Build and extend a complex Django backend - APIs, data models, and services that power consumer products.
- Own correctness and performance across backend boundaries, not just the happy path.
Client Integration
- Wire the backend to a web client (React) and/or a mobile client (Swift / Kotlin / React Native).
- Own the full request path end to end - from the data layer to the interface the user actually touches.
Full-Stack Ownership
- Ship features end to end, taking ambiguous product goals to working software with minimal direction.
- Flex across languages and stacks as the work demands; ramp quickly on unfamiliar parts of the system.
AI-Native Execution
- Use modern AI coding tools fluently to ship at high velocity across multiple workstreams.
- Run your own productivity harness - managing parallel agent streams and many concurrent tickets is the default, not the exception., * Backend plus one or more mobile stacks (Swift and/or Kotlin) - strong full-stack-plus-mobile range is rare and highly valued.
- Experience in privacy, identity, security, fintech, or other high-compliance domains.
- Startup background where you owned features end to end.
Role Characteristics
- Contract engagement, time-and-materials; begins with a two-week trial.
- High autonomy, high accountability - top-percentile execution expected.
- AI-native by default; ramps quickly and flexes across the stack as the product requires.
- East Coast time-zone overlap with the team.
Requirements
- Strong production experience with Django (or a comparable complex backend) and at least one client stack - web (React) or mobile (Swift, Kotlin, React Native).
- Demonstrated fluency wiring backends to clients and owning the full path between them.
- A strong technical thinker who ramps into new languages and stacks quickly.
- Proven ability to hit the ground running with minimal onboarding and operate autonomously in ambiguity.
- Daily fluency with AI-assisted development tools and a personal setup for working quickly across parallel tasks.
- Exceptional written and verbal English communication.
About the company
Cloaked is a privacy-first identity company building consumer products that protect people's personal information at scale. We are an AI-native team that ships fast and operates lean. We are looking for Full Stack Engineers who can move fluently between a Django backend and the clients that sit on top of it - web and mobile alike.
This is a hands-on contract engagement, not a delineated-task role. The core of the job is wiring: taking a sophisticated Django backend and connecting it cleanly to a web or mobile client, owning both sides of the seam. Specific languages matter less than the ability to think clearly across the full stack and move quickly - with AI, strong engineers flex into new stacks fast.
