Full-Stack Developer

StayBoba (HustleVentures) is hiring independent builders who ship real products.

The Role

We're looking for full-stack developers who are independent builders — people who have been shipping personal projects, contributing to open source, or building products on their own using modern tools including AI-assisted development.

This is not a typical internship. You will ship real products to real users from week one. No training programs, no busy-work. You join, you build, you ship.
TitleFull-Stack Developer (Intern → Full-time)
TypeRemote — work from anywhere in India
Duration1-week evaluation → 3-month internship → Full-time
ScheduleMonday to Saturday, 9 AM – 6 PM (flexible)
EquipmentOwn laptop/device required
Positions1–2 candidates

What We're Looking For

We don't filter by CGPA, college tier, or branch. We filter by what you've built.

Curiosity — You explore technologies because you're genuinely interested. You've gone deep on something just because you wanted to understand it.
Self-Learning — You don't wait for courses. You read docs, experiment, break things, figure it out.
Problem Solving — You think from first principles. When stuck, you debug methodically, not randomly.
Independent Builder — You've shipped something real and working — a side project, tool, or personal app.

GitHub as your resume: We evaluate your GitHub profile for the past 2 years — consistency, code quality, project ambition, AI-assisted development, completion, and documentation.

A deployed product with real users > 100 tutorial repos.

Technical Skills

You don't need all of these — but you should be comfortable building full-stack applications independently.

Web Development
  • React, Next.js, or similar modern frontend framework
  • TypeScript or JavaScript
  • CSS frameworks (Tailwind preferred)
  • Backend development (Node.js, Python, or similar)
  • Databases (SQL, PostgreSQL, or any relational DB)
  • Git and GitHub workflows
AI-Assisted Development
  • Comfortable using AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar)
  • Ability to prompt effectively and validate AI-generated code
Bonus
  • Mobile development (React Native, Swift, or Kotlin)
  • Cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Cloudflare)
  • Docker and basic DevOps
  • API design and integration

FAQ

Do I need a CS/IT degree?

No. Any branch is fine. We evaluate your GitHub, not your transcript.

What if my GitHub is mostly private repos?

Make your best 2–3 projects public before applying, or share a portfolio site that demonstrates your work.

Is the 1-week evaluation paid?

No. It's a short test project (not production work) designed to take a few focused hours across the week. Think of it as a practical interview replacement.

Can I do this alongside college?

This is a full-time commitment (Mon–Sat, 9–6). Best suited for final-year students who've completed coursework, or recent graduates.

What if I only know frontend / only know backend?

That's fine to start — we expect you to grow into full-stack. Curiosity matters more than current breadth.

Do I need to know all the technologies listed?

No. React + TypeScript + one backend language + fast learning = qualified. We'll help you ramp up on specific tools.

What does "AI-assisted development" mean?

We use AI tools as a core workflow — not as a crutch, but as a productivity multiplier. We want people who already use AI to write boilerplate, debug faster, generate tests, and explore solutions.

How many people will be selected?

1–2 candidates from this hiring round. We keep the team intentionally small.

Can I work on side projects?

No. During employment, we require exclusive focus on StayBoba products. No side projects, freelance, or other professional commitments. Non-negotiable.

Can I be let go during the internship?

Yes. The internship is a probation period. If performance is consistently below expectations after feedback, employment may be discontinued.

Is there potential for higher pay?

Yes. Exceptional performers may start full-time at a higher rate. After 6 months, compensation is reviewed based on impact.
