Senior Software Engineer (Back-End) – Node.js

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Back-End) to build and operate backend services for logistics-focused platforms supporting operational workflows where reliability, performance, and data accuracy are critical. This role is centered on designing scalable systems that power high-volume, time-sensitive processes such as dispatch coordination, task execution flows, operational visibility, and reporting.

You will work closely with Product, QA, and Engineering to deliver high-quality releases. This is a production-first role: we need engineers who can own services end-to-end, make sound architectural decisions, and maintain high standards for performance, security, and maintainability.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services using Node.js and modern JavaScript/TypeScript.

• Build and integrate RESTful APIs and microservices that support logistics workflows (job/task orchestration, operational tracking, scheduling logic, reporting).

• Partner closely with Product and QA to clarify requirements, define acceptance criteria, and deliver incrementally.

• Participate in peer code reviews to ensure quality, security, performance, and consistency.

• Deploy and operate services using Docker and AWS; support release coordination and environment stability.

• Troubleshoot production issues, perform root-cause analysis, and implement long-term fixes.

• Optimize backend performance, including database query tuning and addressing latency/throughput bottlenecks.

• Write clear technical documentation for APIs, services, and operational runbooks.

• Contribute to engineering standards and continuous improvement (refactoring, quality gates, technical debt management).

What You’ll Bring

• 5–7+ years of professional software development experience, primarily focused on backend engineering.

• Strong hands-on experience with Node.js; proficiency in JavaScript; TypeScript experience is strongly preferred.

• Proven experience designing and maintaining REST APIs and service-oriented/microservices-based systems.

• Strong experience with MS SQL Server (MSSQL), including query optimization and performance-oriented development.

• Hands-on experience deploying and operating services on AWS.

• Solid experience with Docker and container-based delivery workflows.

• Strong GitHub workflow experience (branching strategies, pull requests, code reviews).

• Strong communication and collaboration skills in cross-functional environments.

• Advanced English proficiency (spoken and written).

Technical Understanding

• Comfort operating in logistics-style domains where uptime, correctness, and throughput directly impact daily operations.

• Ability to reason about distributed systems, integrations, data flows, and failure modes under real-world constraints.

• Strong engineering judgment: ability to evaluate trade-offs across performance, reliability, maintainability, and delivery speed.

What We Offer

• Salary in USD.

• 100% remote work across LATAM.

• Flexible schedules and strong work-life balance.

• Continuous learning and professional development.

• Recognition programs and inclusive culture.
