What You Bring to the Team

As a Software Engineer III , you will design and implement scalable, high-performance application service layers that power modern, data-driven products. You'll be responsible for building APIs, integrating messaging and event systems, and developing robust data storage solutions across both relational and NoSQL databases within the AWS ecosystem.

In this role, you'll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to architect cloud-native services that are secure, reliable, and easy to maintain. You will contribute to every phase of the software development lifecycle-from design and coding to deployment and monitoring-while applying best practices in modularization, observability, and automation.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in Node.js backend development and hands-on experience with AWS services , along with familiarity in Python-based data engineering , event-driven architectures , and graph database modeling . You're not confined to a single technology stack but instead thrive on solving complex problems using the right tools for the job.

• 3+ years of experience designing and developing scalable backend and application service layers for distributed systems and enterprise applications.
• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Strong experience in Node.js for building APIs, backend services, and event-driven microservices.
• Hands-on experience with AWS services such as Lambda, API Gateway, SQS/SNS, DynamoDB, RDS, ECS/EKS, and CloudWatch for building, deploying, and monitoring cloud-native applications.
• Proficiency in RESTful and event-driven API design, including schema versioning, pagination, error handling, and performance optimization.
• Experience integrating messaging systems (e.g., Kafka, AWS SQS/SNS, or EventBridge) into distributed architectures.
• Strong understanding of database design, including both relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL, RDS) and NoSQL (DynamoDB, MongoDB) data modeling principles, query optimization, and data integrity patterns.
• Familiarity with Graph databases (e.g., Neo4j, Neptune, or ArangoDB) and their use in modeling relationships or knowledge graphs is a big plus.
• Python experience with data pipelines, ETL processes, and API development using AWS services such as Glue, Lambda, and Step Functions is a plus.
• Object-oriented programming (OOP) principles and design pattern knowledge applied to building maintainable and testable backend systems.
• Experience with microservices architectures, inter-service communication, and observability (metrics, tracing, and logging).
• Proficiency with version control systems (Git/GitHub) and modern CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, CodePipeline).
• Experience with testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha, or Pytest for backend and service-level testing.
• Knowledge of DevOps and containerization using Docker and orchestration tools like Kubernetes or ECS.
• UI development exposure with modern frameworks (React, Angular, or Vue.js) is a plus, especially when integrating with backend APIs.
• Open to using multiple languages and technologies as appropriate to the problem domain-favoring the right tool for the job over strict technology allegiance. ", "salary_raw": "Row(double=None, string=None)"}
