Born from the merger of Winston Art Group (the largest independent appraisal and advisory firm in the U.S.) and Artory (a pioneer in art and collectibles data), we combine deep industry expertise, technology, and white-glove service to modernize a $2.9 trillion global asset class.\nWe're already generating significant revenue and have raised Series B from top-tier VCs. Now we're building the next-generation platform to unlock liquidity, trust, and intelligence in the art market, and we're looking for exceptional engineers to help us do it.\nWhy Join Us\nMeaningful equity and competitive compensation\nBuild at the intersection of art, fintech, and AI\nA collaborative, pragmatic team that values speed, clarity, and technical quality\nRemote-flexible culture with an HQ in NYC\nTrusted by leading collectors, advisors, and institutions\n About the role\nWe're hiring a Lead Full Stack Engineer: a senior technical IC who moves fluidly across the stack, with a center of gravity in the backend. In this role, \"Lead\" defines technical authority and architectural ownership beyond the Senior level, not managerial responsibility. You'll own features end to end, from data model and service design through the API to the UI, spend most of your time on backend systems, and help set fullstack engineering standards as the platform grows. This is a high-autonomy role on a flat engineering team. You'll report directly to our Head of Engineering, a hands-on technical leader, and work closely with our CPO, designers, and company leadership to prototype, test, and iterate quickly. This isn't about implementing tickets; it's about owning features from conception to production and making smart tradeoffs along the way.\nWe practice agentic development continuously. Tools like Claude Code and Codex are part of every engineer's daily workflow, and many of our agent skills and playbooks live in our shared repository so the whole team builds on them. This role suits someone who thrives in an early-stage environment, enjoys rapid prototyping and iteration, and believes AI tooling can 10X their output.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn end-to-end features across our core platform (React, TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL), from schema design and service logic to API endpoints and, when needed, the UI\nLead the backend design of the features you own, focusing on reliability, observability, and scaling\nEstablish fullstack engineering standards for code organization, testing, API design, and deployment\nBuild intelligent interfaces that surface LLM outputs, human-in-the-loop workflows, and real-time data insights\nLead rapid prototyping for new product ideas and AI-powered features, then ship fast and iterate on real-world feedback\nMake architectural decisions that balance backend performance with frontend polish\nPartner with the Head of Engineering on cross-stack architecture, and communicate technical decisions clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders\nQualifications\nRequired\n7+ years of fullstack engineering experience, with at least 1-2 years in a senior IC or tech lead role at a high-growth startup or product company\nExpert in Python backend development, with production experience building scalable services and APIs; strong in React and TypeScript\nStrong PostgreSQL skills: schema design, query optimization, and migrations\nDeep understanding of API design: RESTful patterns, GraphQL, authentication, error handling, and versioning\nBackend infrastructure knowledge: async patterns, queues, caching, monitoring, and basic DevOps (Docker, CI/CD, Terraform, AWS)\nHands-on LLM/AI integration experience (OpenAI, Anthropic, or open-source models), including prompt engineering, streaming responses, and human-in-the-loop workflows\nFrontend fundamentals: state management (Context, Redux, Zustand), build tooling (Vite, Webpack), and testing (Jest, Cypress)\nProduct-minded and pragmatic: you care about UX and user outcomes, know when to polish and when to ship, and can independently scope, design, and deliver complex features\nDaily user of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, or similar), with strong opinions, loosely held, about where they help\nFluency in English (written and spoken)\nPreferred\nExperience building 0→1 products at early-stage startups (seed through Series B)\nNext.js or a similar fullstack React framework\nFintech, data-intensive, or real-time applications (WebSockets, Server-Sent Events)\nUser-facing features powered by LLMs or ML models\nCompensation and benefits\nA friendly, international team with a collaborative, inclusive culture and regular, transparent feedback\nFlexible remote work environment\nPaid time off, including vacation, sick leave, and local holidays\nAdditional leave for bereavement or family emergencies\nContinuous learning and development: training, courses, knowledge-sharing sessions, and mentorship\nPlease note: English fluency is required. Interviews will be conducted in English.\n¿Te suena interesante? ¡Esperamos recibir tu candidatura!","description_format":"text","description_chars":5098,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Continuous learning","Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Professional Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-29T13:18:43Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":6,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/winston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/winston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-03T23:21:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1998,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-04T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4422588},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4422588"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fwinston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fwinston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fwinston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/winston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fwinston-artory-group-lead-full-stack-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3459237}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"wag-art.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3459237},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
