Job Description

This role requires a software engineer specializing in designing and building microservices. The candidate should also have an understanding of blockchain technology and the ability to develop scalable full-stack applications while collaborating effectively in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

•   Lead the design, development, and deployment of scalable, performant, and secure fullstack applications. 
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (engineering, product, and leadership) to define the technical roadmap, prioritize features, and make architectural decisions. 
• Architect and maintain backend and frontend systems, ensuring they meet high standards of reliability, performance, and scalability. 
• Take ownership of complex technical challenges, diagnosing and resolving issues across the stack and environments.
•  Lead the automation of engineering processes, including CI/CD pipelines, testing, and deployment, to ensure faster and safer releases. 
•  Mentor and guide junior and mid-level engineers, fostering a culture of learning, collaboration, and innovation. 
•  Proactively identify technical debt and provide recommendations for long-term system improvements.
•  Stay informed about industry trends, new tools, and best practices, and implement them to improve the team's performance and the product's quality.
•  Expert in designing and building distributed systems,  microservices, and APIs with a strong focus on scalability, security, and performance. 
•  Proficient in integrating with internal and external APIs, optimizing their performance, and scaling to handle high volumes. 
•  Extensive experience with TypeScript, Vue.js, Node.js, and NestJS for fullstack development. 
•  Strong expertise in microservices, event-driven architecture, and design patterns. 
•  Deep knowledge of databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL) and caching systems (Redis), including scaling and optimization. 
•  Hands-on experience with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure), with a focus on high availability, auto-scaling, and cost optimization. 
•  Experience with messaging systems such as AWS SQS, RabbitMQ, and Kafka, with a strong understanding of their role in distributed systems. 
•  Skilled in containerization and orchestration tools, including Docker and Kubernetes, and maintaining complex cloud infrastructure. 
•  Proficient in performance monitoring and optimization using tools like New Relic, Prometheus, DataDog, and Grafana.  

Skills & Experiences

•  Minimum of 5 years in software engineering, with at least 2 years in a senior role or leading projects. 
• Proven track record of architecting and scaling microservices, APIs, and database systems. 
• Expertise in designing systems with a focus on security, scalability, and maintainability. 
• Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. 
• Ability to manage and prioritize multiple projects in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. 
•  Experience with EVM-compatible blockchains and deploying smart contracts is a significant plus. 
•  Passionate about blockchain technology, with a deep understanding of its principles and real-world applications. 
•  Demonstrated leadership in engineering teams, contributing to both individual growth and team success. 
•  Strategic thinking with the ability to balance short-term technical requirements with long-term goals.
