Responsibilities
Own the backend architecture across all product domains - define patterns, set standards, and ensure hands-on involvement when it matters.
Be the go-to technical authority for backend engineers across three teams.
Identify technical debt, scalability risks, and performance bottlenecks - and drive the roadmap to address them.
Partner with team leads to elevate engineering practices: code quality, testing, CI/CD etc.
Collaborate with product and R&D leadership to align technical strategy with business goals.
Requirements
8+ years of backend development experience, with at least 2–3 years in an architecture or principal engineer role.
Deep expertise in Node.js and NestJS.
Excellent communication skills - you can explain a complex architectural decision to an engineer and to a PM alike.
High ownership mentality - you see a problem, you drive it to resolution.
We're looking for a Backend Architect to be the technical authority across our engineering teams. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who loves diving deep into complex systems while keeping the big picture in mind.
You'll work closely with three cross-functional development teams - shaping the backend architecture, driving engineering standards, and making sure we're building for scale, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
