About the Role

We are building a consumer product from the ground up and are looking for a Backend Developer who can take ownership of services end-to-end — from designing scalable APIs to deploying and maintaining them in production.

You will work closely with the founder and frontend/mobile teams, contributing to technical decisions rather than just executing tasks. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early-stage environments, enjoys problem-solving, and is comfortable with ambiguity.

Design efficient database schemas and manage data across MongoDB and PostgreSQL

Optimize queries, indexing, and ensure high-performance data access patterns

Own deployment and infrastructure for services, including Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and AWS

Build clean, maintainable, well-documented, and testable code

Integrate third-party services such as authentication, payments, notifications,



and storage systems

Ensure scalability, reliability, and security of backend systems

Collaborate with frontend/mobile developers to define and maintain API contracts

Participate in code reviews and help define engineering best practices

Debug and resolve production issues independently when needed

Must-Have Requirements

3-4 years of experience in backend development

Strong expertise in Node.js and Express.js

Hands-on experience with both MongoDB and PostgreSQL

Schema design, indexing, and query optimization

Ability to choose the right database based on use case (relational vs document)

Strong understanding of REST API design principles

Experience with authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth)

Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.)

Working knowledge of AWS services (EC2, S3, RDS, etc.)

Strong understanding of asynchronous programming and error handling
