  • Operate and scale a rapidly growing product that is vital to our partners.

  • Contribute novel ideas and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver and improve systems.

  • Be an excellent team player, fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and mutual support across the team.

  • Work closely with product architects, product owners, and stakeholders to deliver high-value capabilities.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).

  • 4+ years of hands-on backend / distributed systems development experience using Node.js (with strong experience in frameworks such as Express.js, NestJS, or similar).

  • Deep understanding of asynchronous programming, event-driven architectures, design patterns, data structures, and algorithms.

  • Experience building scalable, high‐availability, fault‐tolerant systems using microservices or service-oriented architectures.

  • Strong experience with relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and proficiency with NoSQL / caching (e.g., Redis, DynamoDB) / message queues (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, BullMQ).

  • Experience designing and implementing RESTful and/or GraphQL APIs; strong understanding of web services, JSON, etc.

  • Familiarity with performance optimization (profiling, troubleshooting, latency reduction), scalability, and reliability concerns in production systems.

  • Experience with observability / monitoring (metrics, logging, tracing) to maintain system health and support debugging in production.

  • Familiarity with modern frontend frameworks such as React, Angular for building user-facing components and bridging backend systems with UI experiences.


    Preferred

    • Experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS) including RDS, Lambda, SQS, and EC2.

    • Experience with container-based application development using Docker and Kubernetes.

    • Familiarity with TypeScript for building large-scale, maintainable applications.
