🎯 Mission
You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping, building, and scaling the core platform that powers AirNxt’s next-gen aviation ERP. Your primary strength is backend engineering — designing APIs, services, and systems in Node.js — but you’re equally comfortable diving into React UIs to ship features end-to-end.
This isn’t a siloed role. You’ll work closely with PMs, designers, and engineers to take user stories from idea to production, while setting engineering standards, mentoring others, and making smart trade-offs between velocity and architecture.

🛠 What You’ll Do
Design and develop scalable backend services and APIs using Node.js and NestJS
Build and enhance web application interfaces using React (Web)
Own end-to-end feature delivery — from DB schema to UI interactions
Write clean, testable, and maintainable code across the stack
Collaborate with product, design, and QA to break down features and deliver iteratively
Guide architectural decisions across backend and frontend boundaries
Review code, mentor engineers, and advocate for clean patterns and modularity
Contribute to DevOps practices including CI/CD workflows, containerization, and environment configs
Troubleshoot production issues and continuously improve platform reliability
⸻
✅ You Should Have
8+ years of full stack software development experience
Advanced backend engineering skills in Node.js, with strong grasp of architecture patterns
Solid hands-on experience with React and frontend application design
Ability to ship complete features across the stack independently
Familiarity with microservices, API contracts, event-driven patterns, and real-time systems
Experience with CI/CD tooling (Docker, Cloud Build, etc.)
Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
Bonus: GCP experience, aviation/ERP/logistics background, or exposure to high-compliance systems
⸻
🧬 Our Stack & Context
Backend: Node.js, NestJS, Express, microservices
