Role Overview

As a Software Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining scalable backend systems that support our core products and services. You will play a key role in building robust APIs, data-driven services, and event-based systems, working closely with product, frontend, and infrastructure teams. This role requires strong backend fundamentals, experience with Node.js (NestJS), and a solid understanding of modern architectural patterns to deliver reliable and maintainable software at scale.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services using Node.js and NestJS.
• Build and optimize data models and queries using PostgreSQL, ensuring performance and data integrity.
• Apply Hexagonal (Ports & Adapters) architecture principles to create clean, testable, and maintainable codebases.
• Develop and maintain services within a modular monolith architecture, with a clear path toward scalability.
• Implement asynchronous and event-driven communication using RabbitMQ.
• Use Redis for caching, performance optimization, and distributed coordination where needed.
• Collaborate closely with frontend, product, and DevOps teams to deliver end-to-end features.
• Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented code following best practices.
• Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and technical decision-making.
• Identify performance bottlenecks and proactively improve system reliability and scalability.

Requirements

• More than 2 years of experience in backend development.
• Strong hands-on experience with Node.js and NestJS.
• Solid experience working with PostgreSQL in production environments.
• Experience working with or designing modular monolith architectures.
• Experience using Redis for caching or other backend use cases.
• Experience using Docker and building containerized applications.
• Ability to write unit and integration tests and an understanding of testing best practices.
• Good understanding of RESTful APIs and backend fundamentals.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively within a team.
• Good communication skills and a proactive mindset.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with Hexagonal architecture and its core principles.
• Hands-on experience with RabbitMQ for messaging and event-driven systems.
• Familiarity with Kubernetes and container orchestration concepts.
