🧩 About the Role:

We are looking for a skilled and motivated Node.js Developer to join our backend team. You will be responsible for developing secure, scalable, and high-performance RESTful APIs powering real-world applications such as admin panels, analytics dashboards, and user-facing platforms. You'll work closely with frontend developers, DevOps engineers, and product stakeholders to deliver seamless end-to-end features.

🔧 Key Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain robust RESTful APIs using Node.js and Express.js (or NestJS).

• Design scalable MongoDB schemas with Mongoose, including embedded documents and references.

• Implement data validation, model relationships, virtuals, and custom middleware.

• Use MongoDB's aggregation framework for analytics, stats, and reports.

• Build secure authentication and authorization systems using JWT and role-based access control.

• Design and maintain API versioning, structured error handling, and response formatting.

• Apply rate limiting, CORS, and API security best practices.

• Write unit and integration tests using Jest, Mocha, or Supertest.

• Use tools like Postman or Swagger for API testing and documentation.

• Manage environment configurations and deployment scripts (dotenv, PM2, Docker, etc.).

• Collaborate with frontend and DevOps teams to ensure smooth CI/CD workflows.

• Develop backend APIs for admin panel features like:

  • User and driver management

  • Trip overviews

  • Real-time analytics and reports

  • Notifications and audit trails

✅ Requirements:

• Strong proficiency in Node.js, with deep understanding of asynchronous programming (Promises, async/await).

• Solid experience with Express.js (or NestJS for structured projects).

• Expertise in MongoDB + Mongoose: schema design, validations, middleware, population.

• Proficient in designing and consuming REST APIs, including pagination, filtering, and status code standards.

• Experience with JWT-based authentication and role-based access control (RBAC).

• Familiarity with secure password handling (bcrypt, scrypt) and refresh tokens or OAuth (preferred).

• Hands-on knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, PM2, Nodemon, and optionally Docker.

• Experience with Postman, Swagger, and API testing tools.

• Committed to code quality and testing, with familiarity in Jest, Mocha, or Supertest.

• Clear understanding of RESTful architecture and modular code practices.

🌟 Nice to Have:

• Exposure to event-driven architecture, Redis, or Socket.io.

• Experience deploying apps in cloud environments (AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.).

• Monitoring tools like Sentry, New Relic, or LogRocket.

• Experience building APIs consumed by React, Flutter, or mobile frontends.

🤝 What We Offer:

• Flexible work environment (hybrid/remote options).

• Collaborative, product-focused engineering culture.

• Opportunities to work on impactful and high-scale backend systems.

• Continuous learning, mentorship, and upskilling opportunities.
