How do I get an entry level lead full stack developer job?
Build a portfolio with two or three complete projects that show both front-end and back-end work, ideally deployed and publicly accessible. Employers at this level look for candidates who understand the full request-response cycle, can write clean version-controlled code, and have some exposure to RESTful APIs or a modern framework. Bootcamp graduates and self-taught candidates are competitive when their projects demonstrate real problem-solving.

Yes, though remote openings at the entry level are more selective than at senior levels.
