- Designing and building scalable backend services using Node.js & TypeScript
- Developing and optimising GraphQL and REST APIs
- Contributing to system architecture and technical strategy
- Ensuring performance, scalability and long-term maintainability
- Collaborating closely with frontend, mobile and product teams
- Mentoring mid-level engineers where required
What They're Looking For
- Strong commercial experience with Node.js
- Deep understanding of API design (GraphQL & REST)
- Experience with microservices or distributed systems
- Solid grasp of clean architecture and engineering best practices
- Comfortable operating in a high-autonomy, client-facing environment
