SSE II - Nest.Js

Overview

We are seeking a Full Stack Engineer who can own systems end-to-end — from architecting backend services and infrastructure to guiding web and mobile development teams. This role is ideal for someone with deep backend expertise, strong architectural thinking, and the ability to lead teams across the full stack to deliver scalable, reliable, and modern applications.

You will work on high-impact projects involving distributed systems, background processing, observability pipelines, and production-grade deployments. The ideal candidate is hands-on with backend code, comfortable guiding frontend and mobile teams, and thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Architect, build, and maintain scalable, distributed systems with strong reliability and performance characteristics.
• Design and develop efficient backend services, REST/GraphQL APIs, background workers, and asynchronous job pipelines.
• Drive database schema design, indexing strategies, triggers/functions, and performance tuning for large-scale workloads.
• Implement robust observability practices using metrics, logging, and tracing frameworks.
• Lead full-stack initiatives by guiding frontend and mobile engineers on architecture, API design, and performance best practices.
• Directly contribute to backend and infrastructure layers while coordinating efforts across teams.
• Build responsive, modern interfaces for web and mobile platforms with effective state management and API integration.
• Ensure secure, maintainable, and production-ready code, including authentication (JWT), authorization, rate limiting, and configuration management.
• Own and manage CI/CD pipelines, Docker-based workflows, and Kubernetes setups for containerization and deployment.
• Mentor engineers, perform code reviews, and help establish strong engineering practices across the stack.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements for scalability, reliability, and developer efficiency.

Skills & Qualifications:

• Languages & Frameworks:
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript, JavaScript, Node.js, NestJS, and Express.js.
• Databases:
• Hands-on experience with PostgreSQL and/or MongoDB, plus Redis for caching and background processing.
• Infrastructure & DevOps:
• Practical experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD automation for build, test, and deployment workflows.
• Observability Stack:
• Familiarity with tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and/or the ELK stack for metrics, logging, and tracing.
• Cloud Platforms:
• Experience deploying and operating applications on AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, or GCP.
• Frontend – Web:
• Experience building modern web applications using React, Next.js, or Vue.js.
• Frontend – Mobile:
• Experience with React Native or Flutter for building cross-platform mobile applications.
• UI & State Management:
• Proficiency in state management, responsive UI, and component-driven development.
• Engineering Best Practices:
• Strong understanding of asynchronous programming, secure API design, modular architecture, API versioning, and disciplined release processes.

Good-to-Have Skills:

• Theoretical understanding of API gateways, load balancing, and distributed-system design.
• Exposure to integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) or AI-based APIs into applications.
• Familiarity with Domain-Driven Design (DDD), CQRS, or microservice patterns.
• Experience building shared UI component libraries or frontend design systems at scale.

Experience:

• Minimum of 4+ years of professional full-stack development experience.
• Proven track record of designing, building, and deploying backend-heavy applications in production.
• Experience leading and mentoring teams across frontend and backend domains.
