Are you passionate about building scalable backend systems that power millions of users globally?


Do you love working with modern tech stacks — Node.js, Java, AWS — and leading high-performing teams?


If so, we want to hear from you!


We’re hiring on behalf of a leading global design and engineering software company — an organization whose platforms are used by architects, engineers, and creators around the world to design the future. With an innovative culture and a strong commitment to technology excellence, they are continuously transforming how industries build, create, and solve complex challenges.


We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help design, build, and scale powerful APIs and microservices that fuel their next-generation platforms. You’ll play a critical role in shaping backend architecture, making key technical decisions, and mentoring a talented team.


What You'll Be Doing:

  • Designing and developing robust, scalable REST APIs using Node.js, Java, and TypeScript.
  • Building secure microservices in a modern AWS cloud environment.
  • Leading technical design discussions and guiding engineers across interconnected platforms.
  • Driving performance, security, and reliability improvements across all backend services.
  • Implementing best practices for logging, monitoring, and application health using tools like NewRelic, DynaTrace, and Splunk.
  • Collaborating closely with product managers, architects, and DevOps to deliver enterprise-grade solutions.


What You'll Bring:

  • 7–10 years of backend development experience with expertise in Node.js, Java, and TypeScript.
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS cloud technologies.
  • Expertise in building and securing RESTful APIs and familiarity with SOA and microservices architectures.
  • Experience working with NoSQL databases and high-availability systems.
  • Familiarity with observability tools and building highly available, production-ready applications.
  • Ability to lead teams, mentor engineers, and influence technical direction.
  • Bonus points for experience with containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines, or event-driven systems (Kafka, etc.).


Why Join?

  • Opportunity to work with a globally recognized innovator in design and engineering software.
  • Fully remote role with flexibility.
  • Join a collaborative, forward-thinking team building industry-leading technology.
  • Initial 6-month contract with strong chances of extension.
  • Competitive compensation and the ability to make a large-scale impact.
