About the Role  

We are looking for a backend-first Full-Stack Engineer to help architect, build, deploy, and scale our internal operational platform. 

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys owning systems end-to-end — from backend architecture and infrastructure to deployment pipelines, APIs, analytics, and workflow-driven applications. 

While this is a full-stack position, the primary focus is backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, scalability, security, and system design. The frontend should be viewed as a workflow layer on top of a reliable, scalable backend platform. 

You will work closely with leadership, operations teams, and end users to turn real-world operational problems into production-grade software systems. 

This is a high-ownership role with significant autonomy and influence over technical direction. 

What You Will Do  

• Design and build scalable backend systems and APIs using Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and TypeScript

• Architect and manage secure multi-tenant data models, RBAC systems, audit logging, and permissions frameworks

• Build and maintain full-stack applications using React and TypeScript

• Design and deploy cloud infrastructure in AWS, including production and staging environments

• Own CI/CD pipelines, deployment workflows, environment management, and infrastructure configuration

• Configure authentication systems including SSO and identity management

• Build reporting systems, KPI dashboards, analytics pipelines, and operational tooling

• Develop AI-assisted workflows, automation systems, and data processing tools

• Improve system performance, reliability, observability, and maintainability

• Partner with cross-functional teams to translate operational needs into scalable software solutions

• Support multi-site deployments and platform rollouts across distributed teams

 
Required Experience

• Strong backend engineering skills with experience designing scalable systems

• Experience with PostgreSQL, database design, query optimization, and real-world operational data

• Experience building APIs with authentication, authorization, and RBAC

• Strong React + TypeScript experience

• Experience building or contributing significantly to products from 0→1

• Experience deploying and managing applications in AWS

• Experience setting up cloud infrastructure, environments, networking, and deployment pipelines

• Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD workflows, GitHub Actions, or comparable tooling

• Strong understanding of system architecture, security, and maintainability

• Comfortable working in ambiguity and making high-impact technical decisions

• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently

 
Preferred Qualifications  

• Experience designing multi-tenant SaaS platforms

• Experience with AWS services such as ECS, EC2, RDS, S3, IAM, Lambda, CloudWatch, or VPC configuration

• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation

• Experience with analytics, dashboards, or internal tooling platforms

• Familiarity with AI/ML integrations and automation workflows

• Experience scaling systems across multiple teams or locations

• Startup or high-growth environment experience

• Exposure to operational, logistics, or field-service environments is a plus
