  • Participate heavily in code reviews, providing constructive architectural feedback to team members to ensure alignment with corporate quality standards.

  • Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve complex production issues in a timely manner, guaranteeing system high availability.

  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional and international teams to translate technical and business requirements into production-ready software solutions.

  • Foster a strong DevOps culture by leveraging containerization (Docker) to streamline local development and production deployment pipelines.

  • Participate actively in agile ceremonies including sprint planning, daily standups, technical refinement, and retrospectives.

  • 5+ years of proven professional experience in backend software engineering.

  • Solid command and production-grade experience working with Node.js and ExpressJS.

  • Strong expertise in designing, implementing, and securing RESTful APIs and service orchestration.

  • Practical familiarity with containerization tools, specifically Docker, for managing application environments.

  • Proficiency with version control systems, particularly Git, along with continuous integration flows.
