AppUp Labs is a mobile app development company specializing in building custom iOS, Android, and cross-platform applications for startups and growing businesses. We work with clients primarily in the US, UK, and European markets, creating beautiful and functional mobile experiences.

We're a small team (9 people) expanding into full-stack web development. Many of our mobile app clients also need web dashboards, admin panels, landing pages, and companion web apps. We're looking for a Full Stack Developer who can own the web side of our projects end-to-end.

We're looking for a Full Stack Developer who can build complete web applications using Next.js and React on the frontend, with Node.js/Supabase/PostgreSQL on the backend. You'll work across multiple client projects, sometimes building from scratch, sometimes extending existing codebases.

What We ARE:

• A small, focused team that cares about craft

• Growing steadily (not hyper-growth chaos)

• Building real products that matter to users

• Creating a sustainable, healthy work environment

You Should Apply If You:

Don't Apply If You:

• Only want to work on frontend or only backend - we need someone who does both

• Need constant hand-holding and can't work independently

• Are looking for a large corporate environment with fancy offices

• Don't care about code quality or testing

• Just want to "ship fast" without thinking about maintainability or security

What We're Looking For in Your Portfolio:

When we review your work, we'll be looking at:

• Code quality: Clean architecture, TypeScript usage, proper patterns

• Full-stack thinking: Can you design a database schema AND build a beautiful UI?

• Problem-solving: Can you explain the technical decisions you made?

• Deployed projects: Live apps > GitHub repos > tutorial clones

Quality over quantity - we'd rather see 1 well-built app than 10 todo list tutorials.
