THE ROLE

We are building our founding engineering team at Prime Cargopeople and looking for exceptional Full Stack Software Engineers who want to build AI-powered marketplace technology from the ground up.

High ownership, direct impact, fast-moving team.

• Develop AI-powered features: visual search, voice commerce, hyper-personalized recommendations, dynamic pricing, demand forecasting

• Build and maintain real-time systems using WebSocket, Kafka, and Redis
• Develop advanced supplier analytics dashboards (transactional, seasonal, regional data)
• Build fraud detection, automated returns, and smart loyalty program modules
• Support AWS migration from existing GCP infrastructure

• AWS (EC2, ECS, RDS, S3, Lambda); GCP-to-AWS migration experience a plus

• Experience building B2B or B2C e-commerce or marketplace platforms
