Pragmatike is recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing technology company building critical infrastructure that powers high-volume, real-time business operations across multiple systems and platforms. We are seeking a Backend Software Engineer with strong TypeScript and NestJS expertise to help design, build, and scale integration-heavy backend services that process large volumes of transactions and data.

This is an opportunity to join a high-ownership engineering culture where developers are encouraged to move quickly, solve meaningful technical challenges, and have a direct impact on product and platform evolution. You'll work closely with Product, Engineering, and Operations teams to build reliable, scalable systems that support mission-critical workflows used by customers worldwide.

What You'll Do:

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services using TypeScript and NestJS.
• Architect and implement scalable APIs, integrations, and event-driven systems.
• Build and optimize high-throughput workflows that process large volumes of transactions and data.
• Design data models, service architectures, and integration patterns for complex distributed systems.
• Develop reliable asynchronous processing systems using queues, workers, and background jobs.
• Collaborate with Product and cross-functional teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Improve platform reliability, performance, and operational efficiency.
• Implement observability best practices, including logging, monitoring, metrics, tracing, and alerting.
• Contribute to API design, developer experience, documentation, and internal tooling.
• Participate in architectural discussions and influence long-term platform strategy.
• Leverage modern AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity and code quality.
• Take ownership of projects from design through deployment and ongoing optimization.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of professional backend software engineering experience.
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and experience building production systems with NestJS or similar Node.js frameworks.
• Proven experience designing and building scalable APIs and backend services.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and asynchronous processing.
• Experience integrating with third-party APIs, webhooks, and external platforms.
• Solid system design skills and the ability to architect solutions that handle significant scale and complexity.
• Experience working with observability tools, monitoring systems, and production troubleshooting.
• Strong understanding of software engineering best practices, testing, and maintainability.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
• A proactive, ownership-driven mindset with the ability to work independently in a remote environment.

Requirements

• Experience with queue management and background job processing tools such as BullMQ or similar technologies.
• Familiarity with Next.js or modern frontend frameworks.
• Experience building high-volume transactional or integration-heavy systems.
• Exposure to cloud infrastructure and DevOps best practices.
• Experience working in startup or high-growth environments.
• Knowledge of distributed architectures, microservices, and platform engineering concepts.
• Experience using AI-powered development tools as part of your engineering workflow.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work on complex systems, large-scale integrations, and real-world technical challenges.
• Collaborative, fast-moving environment where ownership is encouraged.
• Meaningful influence on architecture, product direction, and engineering culture.
• Opportunity to tackle challenging backend problems and work with modern technologies.
• Grow alongside an ambitious team building for scale.
