Architect with deep Node.js/TypeScript

Description

• Own production readiness: SLOs, dashboards, alerting, runbooks; lead incident triage/bridge calls and drive blameless RCAs.
• Raise the bar: code reviews, engineering best practices, mentoring, pair programming, tech talks, and documentation.
• Architect greenfield systems: service boundaries, data models, REST APIs, event streams, CI/CD, observability, and runtime topology.
• Think two steps ahead: anticipate edge cases, scaling, operability, and cost; recommend pragmatic sequencing and trade-offs.
• Collaborate across teams (web, mobile, data, security, ops) to unblock work, sequence dependencies, and land integrated releases.
• Bias for action: you go the extra mile, anticipate the next two steps, and ship high-quality software.
• Design & build domain-driven, event-aware microservices in Node.js/TypeScript (Express/Fastify/NestJS) with clean, testable code.
• Set API standards: versioning, OpenAPI/Swagger, pagination, error contracts, resiliency patterns (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers).

Requirements

• API gateways (Apigee/Kong), rate limiting/quotas, multi-tenant patterns.
• Data: PostgreSQL/MySQL, NoSQL (MongoDB/DynamoDB), Redis cache
• Designed secure, resilient public APIs used by web/mobile clients; deep understanding of authN/authZ (OAuth2/OIDC), secrets, and TLS.
• Production experience with Kubernetes and cloud-native deployment, CI/CD, and observability (metrics, traces, logs, SLOs).
• CI/CD & Observability: GitHub Actions/Jenkins, ELK/Dynatrace, feature flags, OpenTelemetry, Datadog/New Relic/Prometheus, log aggregation
• Expert-level Node.js/TypeScript with proven delivery of domain-driven microservices at scale.
• 8+ years backend engineering (or equivalent impact), 3+ years technical leadership on product teams.
• Experience in telecom (ordering, provisioning, billing, identity) or large consumer digital platforms.
• Messaging/Streaming: Kafka/RabbitMQ (sagas, outbox, idempotency)
• Communicate proactively with leadership: crisp status, risk/mitigation, dependencies, and measurable outcomes.
• Strong grasp of DDD (entities/aggregates/bounded contexts), event-driven architectures, and microservice patterns (saga, outbox, circuit breaker).
• APIs: REST, OpenAPI/Swagger, OAuth2/OIDC, JWT
• Demonstrated success leading triage/incident response and driving RCAs to lasting improvements.
• Outstanding communication able to simplify complex trade-offs, tell a delivery story, and keep partners aligned.
• Performance tuning, capacity planning, and cost optimization in cloud environments.
• Languages/Frameworks: Node.js, TypeScript, Express/Fastify/NestJS
