- Architect and implement robust server-side logic, data models, and workflows to support high-throughput, low-latency use cases.
- Build and maintain well-structured RESTful APIs (and other API paradigms where applicable) for internal and external consumption.
- Work with databases and data stores (SQL and NoSQL) to design efficient schemas, optimise queries, and ensure data integrity.
- Collaborate with frontend engineers to integrate backend services seamlessly into user-facing applications.
- Ensure backend systems meet enterprise-grade standards for performance, scalability, reliability, and security.
- Implement authentication, authorisation, and access control mechanisms following best practices.
- Participate in system design discussions, contributing to architectural decisions and long-term technical strategy.
- Actively participate in code reviews, mentoring peers and promoting clean, maintainable, and well-documented code.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex issues across the stack, including production incidents, and drive root-cause analysis.
- Work within an agile development environment, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality features on schedule.
- Continuously evaluate and adopt new backend technologies, tools, and patterns to improve system robustness and developer productivity.
Required Qualifications / Experience
- Bachelor‘s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 6-7 years of professional experience as a Full-Stack Engineer or Backend Engineer, with a strong emphasis on backend development.
- Deep expertise in server-side development using Node.js (or similar runtimes), with a strong understanding of asynchronous and distributed systems.
- Extensive experience designing and building scalable, production-grade APIs.
- Strong hands-on experience with databases such as PostgreSQL , MongoDB , or similar SQL/NoSQL systems.
- Solid understanding of backend architecture patterns, including modular monoliths, microservices, and event-driven systems.
- Experience with AWS cloud platform and building cloud-native services.
- Familiarity with containerisation and orchestration tools such as Docker and Kubernetes .
- Proficiency with version control systems (e.g., Git) and modern CI/CD pipelines.
- Good working knowledge of frontend technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React) and the ability to contribute across the stack when needed.
- Strong understanding of security best practices, including API security, data protection, and secure system design.
Desirable Skills / Experience
- Experience with high-availability, multi-tenant, or enterprise-scale systems.
- Familiarity with modern API design paradigms.
- Experience with serverless architectures and cloud-managed services.
- Knowledge of observability practices, including logging, monitoring, and distributed tracing.
- Experience with performance tuning, load testing, and capacity planning.
- Familiarity with automated testing frameworks and test strategies for backend systems.
- Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments and using tools such as JIRA or Trello.
