Description

A highly skilled Backend Developer is needed to architect and maintain scalable REST API services using Node.js and Express.js. The role requires someone who can design systems that handle heavy traffic while ensuring reliability, performance, and security. A strong understanding of Docker for containerized deployments is essential, along with experience using Redis for caching, session management, and data optimization. The developer should be confident in building APIs that integrate seamlessly with multiple services and are structured for long-term growth and maintainability.

The ideal candidate will bring proven experience in backend engineering, from setting up development environments to optimizing services for production workloads. This project requires deep expertise in designing clean code architectures, implementing best practices for error handling, and ensuring APIs are thoroughly tested before deployment. Familiarity with scaling strategies, database optimization, and modern DevOps workflows will be highly valued. The developer will work closely with other engineers to deliver services that not only meet current project requirements but also anticipate future growth and evolving business needs.
