Backend Software Engineer building scalable event-driven systems with Node.js and NestJS.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Backend Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing and building scalable, event-driven systems. I specialize in the Node.js and NestJS ecosystems, and I focus on clean architecture, reliability, and maintainable code through well-structured service layers and strong error handling.
In my recent role, I architected backend capabilities for an HRMS platform (check-in/check-out, timesheets, automated leave-balance management) and contributed to issue-tracking via Jira API synchronization. I also built a workflow automation engine similar to n8n for configurable orchestration, plus an API Governance platform to manage and monitor API producers and consumers across an organization.
I’ve delivered serverless and distributed services on AWS—using Lambda, SQS for queue-based messaging, and the Serverless Framework—while containerizing services with Docker and wiring production-ready CI/CD and reverse proxy setups. I enjoy accelerating development with AI-assisted tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf, and I’m energized by practical AI work (LangChain, vector embeddings, and RAG) that turns complex data into usable capabilities.
