Why this role is awesome
You won't sit in the background here. You'll build real features, ship them to production, and see your work used at scale. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys owning the full journey, backend to frontend, idea to deployment.
What you'll be doing
- Building and scaling backend services using Node.js & TypeScript
- Designing and integrating RESTful and event-driven APIs
- Creating polished, maintainable UIs with React
- Owning features end-to-end: build, test, deploy, monitor
- Working with databases and cloud infrastructure
- Debugging production issues and making systems better
What you need to bring
- Strong experience with TypeScript and Node.js
- Solid React fundamentals (HTML, CSS, components)
- API development experience
- Relational database knowledge (PostgreSQL or similar)
- Exposure to cloud platforms, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines
- Confident Git workflow and testing experience
Bonus points if you have
- Event-driven systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS)
- Next.js or WebSockets
- Observability or monitoring tools
- Experience in high-scale, production environments
If you like owning the stack and shipping real software - apply now.
