Job description

Join a modern SaaS product team to design and build secure, scalable features for a high-volume, multi-tenant process-automation platform. Partner with architects and product leaders to deliver maintainable solutions using contemporary patterns, cloud services, and thoughtful use of AI. Your role:

Translate business requirements into clear user stories and scalable backend architectures for a modern, multi-tenant SaaS platform.
Lead and contribute code across backend services using Node.js and Express, with a strong focus on API design and microservices architecture.
Own and influence architectural decisions, balancing scalability, maintainability, and pragmatic delivery.
Participate actively in technical discussions around system design, service boundaries, and long-term platform evolution.
Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and QA to meet sprint goals and deliver reliable, production-ready releases.
Apply solid object-oriented and modular design principles to build clean, testable, and maintainable backend services.
Work with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and modern DevOps practices to support cloud-native service deployments.
Collaborate cross-platform with a .NET-based platform team as systems evolve and integrate.

Requirements

3-5+ years of production Node.js/Express experience, building and operating backend services in SaaS environments.
Proven experience designing backend architectures, not just implementing isolated features.
Strong JavaScript/TypeScript fundamentals and experience building scalable APIs and microservices.
Experience working across multiple backend stacks (Node.js plus exposure to .NET, Java, Python, Go, or similar).
Hands-on experience with AWS and cloud-native service patterns.
Solid understanding of databases, data modeling, and writing performant queries.
Experience delivering software in Agile/Scrum environments.
Platform-agnostic mindset with strong engineering judgment and adaptability.
Passion for continuous learning and using AI where it adds real value.
