Node Js Backend Developer

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement backend services and APIs using TypeScript (Node.js), with strong input validation and structured logging.
• Build serverless, event-driven architectures on AWS (Lambda, EventBridge, SQS/SNS, Step Functions).
• Implement robust data models, migrations, and queries with Prisma and relational databases (Aurora PostgreSQL, Oracle where applicable).
• Design and optimize NoSQL solutions (DynamoDB, Redis, MongoDB) for performance and scale.
• Implement and maintain fine-grained authorization models (relationship-based access control).
• Develop containerized services (Docker) and deploy/operate on Kubernetes (EKS).
• Contribute to infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines for automated, repeatable delivery.
• Apply observability practices: structured logging, tracing, and metrics.
• Follow secure-coding practices for input validation, secrets management, IAM, and data protection.
• Participate in code and architecture reviews and help uphold platform standards.
