About The Role
We are looking for a Senior NodeJS Backend Developer to join a rapidly expanding SaaS software business. This role offers the opportunity to work as part of a fast-paced product and engineering team, contributing to the design and development of scalable backend services. The successful candidate will take ownership of features from initial conception through to deployment, ensuring high-quality, reliable, and performant solutions. Instead of merely executing development tickets, this position encourages proactive involvement in improving backend systems and development practices, fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.
The role involves designing and developing server-side applications using NodeJS and TypeScript, building and maintaining microservices, and working within established development, documentation, and deployment processes. Collaboration within an Agile environment is essential, as is a passion for writing clean, efficient, and testable code. The position offers a fully remote working arrangement, providing flexibility and the chance to work with modern technologies in a supportive and collaborative setting.
