A full stack developer is the generalist of a software team. Instead of handing a feature from a back-end engineer to a front-end engineer, one person designs the data model, writes the API, builds the interface and ships the release. For an Australian business with a small product team, that removes a hand-off from every feature and makes one person accountable for whether it works end to end.
A dedicated full stack developer through Webco Talent works only on your product, in your repositories and your sprint board, during hours aligned to your Australian time zone. They join your stand-ups, take tickets from your backlog and report to your product owner, while Webco Talent looks after employment, payroll, equipment and HR offshore.
These are the projects Australian businesses most often give a Webco Talent full stack developer in their first six months.
Turn a validated idea into a working web app: database schema, REST or GraphQL API, React or Vue front end, login, Stripe billing and a first production deploy.
Secure self-service areas where customers log in to view orders, invoices, bookings or documents, connected to your existing CRM or ERP.
Admin panels, approval workflows and reporting dashboards that replace spreadsheets and manual copy-paste between systems.
Ship roadmap features across the whole stack each sprint: new screens, the API endpoints behind them, database migrations and automated tests.
Move an ageing PHP or .NET Framework application to a modern stack in stages, rebuilding one module at a time without taking the business offline.
Connect your product to Xero, MYOB, HubSpot, Shopify, Stripe, Twilio or Google Workspace with webhooks, scheduled jobs and reliable error handling.
Full stack is not one technology. It is a combination of a front-end framework, a back-end language and a database. We shortlist developers who have shipped production work in the exact combination your codebase uses.
| Stack | Front end | Back end | Database | Good fit for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| JavaScript (Next.js) | React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS | Node.js, Express or NestJS | PostgreSQL, Prisma | SaaS products, marketing sites with app logic |
| MERN | React, Redux or Zustand | Node.js, Express | MongoDB | MVPs, real-time apps, flexible data models |
| .NET | React or Angular, Blazor | C#, ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework | SQL Server, Azure SQL | Enterprise systems, Microsoft-based businesses |
| Laravel | Vue.js, Inertia.js, Livewire | PHP 8, Laravel | MySQL, Redis | Portals, booking systems, PHP modernisation |
| Django | React or HTMX | Python, Django, Django REST Framework | PostgreSQL | Data-heavy apps, reporting, AI features |

| Mid-level full stack developer | 3 to 6 years | Whole features end to end, API design, database changes, code reviews | $4,500/mo | About $10,000/mo | Up to 55% |
| Senior full stack developer | 6+ years | Architecture, technical decisions, mentoring, performance and security | From $6,500/mo | $12,584/mo | Up to 48% |
Prices in AUD, exclusive of GST. Webco Talent prices are all-inclusive monthly charges covering recruitment, employment, payroll, equipment and account management. Local figures are indicative monthly equivalents for a permanent Australian hire, including on-costs.
Which level should you hire? Choose a junior developer when a senior engineer already sets direction and reviews code. Choose mid-level when you need someone to own features without close supervision, which suits most product teams. Choose senior when the developer will be your first technical hire or will make architecture decisions on their own.

A full stack hire is the most efficient choice while your product is small. As the codebase and team grow, specialists start to pay for themselves. Most clients follow this path:
Best for an MVP, an internal tool or a product with one main web app. One person ships features end to end with the fewest hand-offs.
Once real customers depend on the product, a dedicated QA tester catches regressions before release so your developer keeps shipping.
For large apps with heavy UI or complex data, add front-end developers and back-end developers around your full stack lead.
For a deeper comparison, read front end vs back end vs full stack: a guide for Australian businesses.
Tell us your languages, frameworks, hosting and the first features you need built. We confirm the level and the monthly price on the call.
Candidates complete a practical build covering a database change, an API endpoint and a working screen, followed by a code review and an architecture discussion with our technical team.
You receive shortlisted CVs and test results within 10 business days, then interview by video. Pair-program with candidates on your own code if you prefer.
Your developer starts with access to your Git, ticketing and cloud accounts. Every Webco staff member signs a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and Intellectual Property (IP) Assignment Agreement before commencing work. All staff operate on secure, dedicated workstations, with employee monitoring software available upon request.
Your Australian account manager checks progress with you each month. If the developer is not the right fit, our 6-Month Replacement Guarantee covers a replacement.
The stacks Australian clients request most are JavaScript end to end (React or Next.js with Node.js and Express), MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js), .NET (C# and ASP.NET Core with React or Angular on SQL Server), Laravel with Vue.js and MySQL, and Django with React and PostgreSQL. Tell us your current codebase and we shortlist developers who have shipped production work in that exact combination.
Yes, for most early-stage web products. A mid-level or senior full stack developer can design the database, build the API, create the front end, set up authentication and payments, and deploy to AWS or Azure. Once the product has real users, most clients add a QA tester or a second developer so releases stay fast and stable.
Most do. Our full stack developers are comfortable with Git workflows, Docker, GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps pipelines, and deploying to AWS, Azure or Vercel. Complex infrastructure such as Kubernetes clusters, multi-region failover or strict compliance hosting is better handled by a dedicated DevOps engineer working alongside them.
Through Webco Talent, a junior full stack developer costs $3,800 per month and a mid-level full stack developer costs $4,500 per month. Senior full stack developers start from $6,500 per month. Each price is all-inclusive, billed in AUD on one monthly invoice, and every hire is covered by our 6-Month Replacement Guarantee.
Send us your stack and first three features. We will confirm the right level, quote your monthly AUD price and send shortlisted CVs within 10 business days.
