About DaCodes

At DaCodes, we build high-impact software solutions for startups and global companies across LATAM and the U.S. We work with senior teams who value ownership, technical excellence, and high-quality engineering standards.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer with a strong focus on integrations, capable of designing, implementing, and maintaining robust, scalable, and secure backend systems, primarily using Node.js, APIs, and event-driven architectures.

This is not a low-code configuration role. It requires deep understanding of backend engineering, protocols, concurrency, and security.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and implement backend integrations between SaaS platforms, ERPs, and internal services.
  • Design and maintain secure, versioned, and resilient REST APIs for external integrations.
  • Design and implement event-driven patterns (webhooks, retries, idempotency, duplicate handling, and eventual consistency).
  • Design and implement authentication and authorization flows:
  • OAuth2 (authorization flows)
  • JWT (token format & validation)
  • API Keys, HMAC
  • Analyze concurrency, performance, and scalability issues in Node.js.
  • Implement observability strategies (structured logging, monitoring, and robust error handling in production).
  • Evaluate architectural trade-offs in integration, security, and data consistency scenarios.
  • Be responsible for the stability and reliability of production integrations.

Requirements

  • 4+ years developing backend systems in production, with experience in integrations and distributed architectures.
  • Advanced Node.js (event loop, async I/O, blocking vs. non-blocking).
  • Strong understanding of HTTP at the protocol level.

Hands-on experience with:

  • OAuth2 (authorization code / client credentials)
  • JWT (not as β€œmagic” auth)
  • Webhooks (idempotency, retries, deduplication)
  • Experience resolving real incidents and production issues.
  • Advanced English (communication with US clients).

Nice to Have

  • Experience with iPaaS (Mulesoft, Workato, Boomi, etc.).
  • ERP integrations (NetSuite, SAP, Business Central).
  • Knowledge of CI/CD.
  • Experience in high-concurrency environments.

Benefits

At DaCodes, our journey began in 2014, sparked by the innovative spirit of three engineering students – Carlos Vela, Jorge Campos, and Mauricio Moreno – who started crafting mobile apps as graduation projects. This passion quickly evolved, and responding to growing demand, DaCodes was formalized in 2015 as a dedicated custom mobile app development company in southeast Mexico. We pride ourselves on being pioneers, becoming the first to offer specialized UI/UX design for mobile applications in our region, meeting an unmet need and introducing world-class design expertise to local businesses. Our core mission, 'Coding the world of tomorrow,' isn't just a tagline; it's the driving force behind everything we do. We are committed to building digital experiences that shape industries and empower people, aiming to make exceptional software the standard by seamlessly integrating strategy, design, and technology in every solution we deliver.

Our culture is built on four foundational principles: Make exceptional work, because we believe the best work is done collaboratively where individual expertise is embraced and fostered. We see every challenge as an opportunity to transcend and discover untapped potential. We dare to be bold, bringing passion and resilience to create long-lasting solutions. And finally, we strive to give more than is expected, acting as dedicated owners who say what we mean and always do the right thing. This ethos has fueled our growth from a local team to a global force of over 220 'DaCoders' across seven countries in Latin America, serving startups and enterprise customers in the US. We've embraced remote work, unifying our diverse talent and fostering flexibility and collaboration as core strengths. Our commitment to a supportive and innovative environment was recognized with the 'Great Place to Work' badge.
