Job Summary
- We are looking to hire a battle-hardened Senior Backend Software Engineer to take ownership of our core infrastructure. You won't just be closing tickets; you will be designing the blueprint for how our systems scale. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in an autonomous environment and believes that "working code" isn't enough—it must be performant, maintainable, and architecturally sound. The Stack Primary: Node.js (TypeScript) Database: MySQL / Relational Databases Bonus Skills: Golang, Microservices, Cloud Infrastructure (AWS/GCP)
Job Details
- Architectural Leadership: Design and implement robust, scalable backend services that can handle high-traffic volume.
- End-to-End Ownership: Lead projects from initial requirements gathering through to deployment and monitoring.
- System Optimization: Profile and optimize MySQL queries and Node.js event-loop performance to ensure low latency.
- Code Excellence: Maintain high standards through rigorous code reviews, documentation, and the application of Clean Architecture principles.
- Autonomous Execution: Operate with minimal supervision, making high-level technical decisions that align with business goals.
Requirements
- Experience: 5+ years of Software engineering experience (specifically 3+ years in managing and scaling high-traffic production environments).
- Technical Depth: Deep proficiency in Node.js and TypeScript. (Exposure to Golang is a massive plus for our high-concurrency needs).
- Database Mastery: You don't just write SQL; you understand indexing, schema design, and how to optimize relational databases for scale.
- Architectural Mindset: You are familiar with patterns like Hexagonal Architecture, DDD, or Onion Architecture and know when (and when not) to use them.
- Self-Starter Mentality: You have a proven track record of working independently in a remote or distributed team.
