Full Stack Engineer (Frontend & Mobile Focus)

About Us

Paragon Tech Labs is a startup studio building a portfolio of tech products and services. Our projects span multiple industries and audiences, including platforms serving the global Muslim community and a web development agency serving clients internationally. We move fast, care about quality, and build things that matter.

Our Products

These are the platforms you will be building:

MuslimJobs — A job board and freelancing platform connecting Muslims with career opportunities and work at values-aligned companies and organisations worldwide.

NoorMatch — A Muslim marriage platform designed to make the journey of finding a spouse easy, stress-free, and fully in line with Islamic principles.

SalamReach — A marketplace connecting Muslim content creators and influencers with brands looking to reach Muslim audiences authentically.

Restaurant Tech — Online ordering platforms and point-of-sale solutions built for restaurants, helping them take orders online and manage their operations digitally.

The Role

We are hiring a Full Stack Engineer with a strong lean toward frontend and mobile development. This is a true full stack role. You will work across the entire product, from database to UI, but your primary strength and the majority of your work will be on the frontend and mobile side.

You will move across multiple live products. Some days that means building React components on the web. Other days it means shipping features in React Native on iOS and Android. You will work directly with the founder, own your work end to end, and ship things real users depend on.

We are not looking for someone who needs everything defined before they can start. We are a small, fast-moving team and you need to be sharp, adaptable, and self-directed.

Key Responsibilities

Product Development

• Build and maintain features across web and mobile products in React and React Native
• Own frontend implementation from design handoff to production deployment
• Write clean, maintainable code that other engineers can work with
• Contribute to backend work including REST APIs and database queries when needed

Mobile

• Develop and ship features in React Native for iOS and Android
• Handle app store builds, releases, and debugging across platforms

Collaboration

• Work directly with the founder on priorities and delivery
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to technical decisions
• Pick up new tools, frameworks, or codebases quickly as projects evolve

Must Haves

• 3 to 4 years of hands-on software engineering experience
• Strong proficiency in React for web development
• Solid experience with React Native for mobile development
• Comfortable working on backend code including Node.js APIs and PostgreSQL
• Genuine understanding of software fundamentals, not just frameworks
• Able to move between frontend, mobile, and backend tasks without needing to specialise exclusively in one
• Strong problem-solving ability and engineering intuition
• Fluent in English, written and spoken
• Able to pick up new languages, frameworks, and codebases independently — we do not expect you to know everything, but we expect you to figure it out

Our Stack

• Next.js
• React
• React Native
• Node.js
• PostgreSQL
• Redis
• Prisma

Our Values

If this resonates with you, you will fit in here. If it does not, this is probably not the right place.
