Overview

Job Title:
Software Engineer (Mid/Senior) – Backend Services & API Integrations

Position Summary:

We are looking for a highly skilled backend developer to design, build, and maintain distributed systems and APIs that power mission-critical services. This role focuses on hands-on development with Type Script and Golang, leveraging modern frameworks and cloud-native architectures to deliver secure, scalable, and resilient solutions.

• Implement APIs using Type Script (Node.js/Apollo Server) and Golang for high-performance services.
• Develop Graph
  
  QL subgraphs and REST endpoints, ensuring schema integrity and efficient resolver logic.
• Integrate with API gateways and enforce security standards (OIDC/JWT, role-based access).
• Collaborate with other application teams to design and implement API integration patterns.
• Work with Apollo Router for federated Graph
  
  QL architectures and schema composition.
• Ensure robust error handling, observability, and performance optimization across services.
• Build and maintain data access layers using GORM (Go) and Prisma
  
  ORM/TypeORM (Type Script).
• Implement data integration workflows with relational databases (Postgre
  
  SQL) and data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake).
• Optimize queries and ensure secure handling of sensitive data.
• Deploy and operate services on containerized and serverless platforms (ECS/Fargate, Lambda) across AWS/GCP/Azure.
• Use IaC tools (CDK/Terraform) for environment provisioning and configuration.
• Implement observability practices with distributed tracing (X-Ray/Open Telemetry), structured logging, and metrics.

• Languages & Frameworks:
  Proficiency in Golang and Type Script; experience with Node.js, Apollo Server, and REST API design.
• ORMs & Data Modeling: GORM, Prisma
  
  ORM or TypeORM; strong understanding of relational and No
  
  SQL data stores.
• Cloud & Infrastructure:
  Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS/GCP/Azure); familiarity with serverless and container orchestration.
• Security: JWT/OIDC, TLS, IAM/RBAC principles.
• Observability:
  Logging, metrics, and distributed tracing tools.
• CI/CD:
  Automated build/deploy pipelines and zero-downtime deployment strategies.

• Experience with Graph
  
  QL federation and Apollo Router.
• Familiarity with messaging systems (SQS/Event Bridge or equivalents) and asynchronous processing patterns.
• Exposure to data warehouse integration (Snowflake or similar).

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or a similar field.
