Senior Backend Developer

We’re hiring a hands-on Backend Developer to build and ship production serverless services for a fintech platform. 

Tech stack

• Languages: TypeScript, Node.js (18–22)

• AWS: Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, SQS, EventBridge, Step Functions

• Databases: DynamoDB, PostgreSQL 

• Frameworks / middleware: Serverless Framework, Middy

• Libraries: Zod (schemas/validation), Winston (logging), AWS X-Ray (tracing), Luxon (dates)

• Testing: Mocha, Sinon

• Tooling: ESLint, Prettier, Terraform, GitHub Actions

• Build and evolve Lambda-first microservices that handle real money flows and integrations.

• Design REST APIs with type-safe schemas (Zod) and contracts that don’t rot.

• Model data in DynamoDB (access patterns first) and use PostgreSQL when relational fits better.

• Ship event-driven workflows with SQS/EventBridge/Step Functions: retries, idempotency, dead-letters, backpressure.

• Ensure observability: structured logging (Winston), distributed tracing (AWS X-Ray), actionable metrics.

• Write tests that protect releases (Mocha/Sinon), keep quality bars high, and reduce regressions.

• You have strong hands-on backend engineering experience in TypeScript / Node.js.

• You have real AWS production experience — not “used Lambda once”, but built, operated, debugged, and fixed systems in production.

• You have the ability to ship fast without trashing quality: clean code, predictable delivery, and solid engineering fundamentals.

• You use AI tools daily to accelerate output (coding, debugging, analysis) and improve outcomes.

• You have English at B2+ level (the team is English-speaking).

• A competitive salary (depending on what you bring).

• Everything you need to succeed, with flexibility built in — from flexible hours and hybrid/remote work options to private health insurance and paid time off.

• Top-of-the-line Apple gear to fuel your work.

• A workspace designed for focus and collaboration.

• Ownership of your work end-to-end, with the freedom to move fast and make a real impact.

• Celebrated wins, opportunities to grow and a culture where voices are heard and chances to grow are ever-present.
