An Introduction to Codal
Codal is an award-winning web design and development consultancy that helps enterprise organizations solve complex problems and accelerate growth through elegant, data-driven digital solutions. Our areas of expertise include application modernization, eCommerce, UX/UI design, product strategy, data analytics, and artificial intelligence.
At Codal, you will collaborate with some of the most innovative organizations in the world and work on cutting-edge technologies that push the boundaries of design and software development. We promote long-term success, not just for our clients but for our team, helping you develop a professional roadmap that takes your career to new heights.
Codal is hiring a Full Stack Engineer in Lincoln to build web and mobile applications for enterprise clients. You will work with TypeScript, React, React Native and Next.js on the front end, Node.js or Python on the back end, and cloud platforms including AWS, GCP and Azure. You will own features from design hand-off to production and work directly with client stakeholders to shape what gets built.
This is a hands-on engineering and consulting role. We are looking for a full stack developer with strong fundamentals who turns client requirements into reliable, well-tested software. You will use AI-assisted development tools where they help you deliver faster, and you will make the call on when they are the right tool for the job.
Essential
- 2-4 years building production web applications professionally, across both front end and back end.
- Strong JavaScript/TypeScript, with commercial experience of React, Next.js or a similar modern framework.

- Experience with relational and document databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL or MongoDB.

- Codal is a global agency with over 250 employees, and offices in the US, UK, Canada and India.
- We're forward-thinking by design, building for the AI-driven era rather than reacting to it.
