Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Vietnam)

VN - Ho Chi Minh City Office
Full-time
Permanent employee

What will you do?

 We are seeking a highly proactive Senior Full-Stack Engineer with a strong frontend focus to join our global team, working from our  Ho Chi Minh City office. You will be instrumental in building scalable user interfaces using React, powered by a purely Headless Magnolia CMS backend.

We operate in a fast-paced, modern environment and are actively embracing AI-assisted development. We are looking for a self-starter who actively identifies and solves blockers independently, and communicates effectively across the team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Frontend: Drive the development of robust, high-performance UIs using React, seamlessly consuming REST APIs from our Headless Magnolia setup.

  • Backend Integration & Support: While the immediate focus is on the frontend, you will work with Java to configure Magnolia, expose RESTful services, and maintain backend stability.

  • Autonomous Execution: Take ownership of your deliverables. Proactively identify blockers, propose solutions, and independently drive tasks forward while maintaining tight, continuous alignment with our PM, Architects, and Leads to shape epics and clear dependencies.

  • Agent-Assisted E2E Delivery: Go beyond basic code completion. We expect you to actively leverage agentic AI workflows (e.g., Gemini, Claude) throughout the entire product lifecycle. From shaping epics and brainstorming architecture with the PM, to automating complex development tasks, testing, and streamlining our go-to-market deployment—you will use AI to reduce cognitive load, stay unblocked, and boost your efficiency.

  • Collaborate & Communicate: Maintain clear English communication on project status, technical hurdles, and architectural decisions, which is critical to our team's success.

What do you bring in?

  • Over 5 years of experience: as a Senior Full-Stack Engineer or as a Frontend Engineer with solid backend capabilities, supported by a proven track record of delivering high-quality solutions.

  • React expertise: Deep knowledge of React and a strong command of the modern JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem.

  • Solid proficiency in Java, together with excellent command of written and spoken English

  • Proven ability to work autonomously in a multicultural team: taking initiative, self-managing effectively, and driving projects forward in a remote environment.

  • A forward-thinking mindset: with strong curiosity and a willingness to leverage AI tools to accelerate your development speed.

So, who are we?

  • We are a fun and open-minded bunch of colleagues spread across the globe.

  • Aside from work, we are parents, gamers, bookworms, athletes, adrenaline junkies, philosophers, and so much more

  • Constant learning and knowledge sharing with some of the best professionals in the industry

  • Lateral and vertical growth opportunities

  • Flexibility, flexibility, flexibility

  • Remote-friendly vibes

We are for you if you like to...

  • Take charge: Everyone at Magnolia is in the driver’s seat, and we set the direction according to what our customers, colleagues, and culture need. No matter the roadblocks you see ahead, you take charge of (re)shaping the destination.

  • Connect: You never drive alone. Building meaningful connections means creating experiences together that form a foundation of trust, so next time there’s a bump in the road, you know someone else has your back.
  • Be you: Choose your own ways and means. We thrive on making every perspective count so that you feel safe enough to follow your purpose and, at the same time, pursue one common goal. Our way of growing is to mutually question ourselves and others.
