Backend Engineer - Oddr
About Oddr
Oddr is a modern enterprise platform purpose-built for professional services firms. We handle the financial nervous system of some of the world's most demanding clients - invoicing, payments, and revenue intelligence at scale. Our systems process high-stakes, high-volume financial workflows where correctness and reliability are non-negotiable. We're a small, senior-leaning team. Engineers here own systems end to-end, make real architectural decisions, and ship things that matter.
The Role
This is a deep, hands-on individual contributor role. You'll be working on the core backend platform - designing APIs, building scalable workflows, hardening infrastructure, and setting the technical bar for the team around you. You won't be managing people, but you'll naturally
raise everyone's game through code reviews, technical guidance, and the quality of your own work. If you thrive in environments with high ownership, low bureaucracy, and genuinely hard problems, this is the role for you.
What You'll Do
Core Platform Development
Design and build reliable, scalable backend systems using .NET Core. Architect RESTful APIs and business workflow orchestration that hold up under real enterprise load. Make considered tradeoffs between correctness, performance, and maintainability.
Cloud & Infrastructure
Own backend services on Microsoft Azure - app services, databases, messaging, storage, and access management. Work closely with DevOps to improve deployment pipelines and infrastructure reliability.
CI/CD & DevOps Collaboration
Support and improve CI/CD pipelines for fast, safe deployments. Bring a production-minded perspective to automation, rollback strategies, and release confidence.
Security & Compliance
Proactively embed security into the development process - secure coding practices, data protection, access controls, and compliance awareness relevant to enterprise financial systems.
Quality & Observability
Set standards for testing (unit, integration, e2e), code review, and observability. You should care deeply about knowing when things break before customers do.
Technical Mentorship
Unblock engineers around you. Share context, raise the quality of code reviews, and help the
team develop good engineering intuition - without needing a management title to do it.
What We're Looking For
Required
• 6 -10 years of backend engineering experience with strong depth in .NET Core.
• Solid understanding of RESTful API design, service architecture, and distributed systems.
• Strong relational database skills - schema design, query optimization, indexing (PostgreSQL or SQL Server)• Security-conscious mindset with practical experience applying secure coding practices
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment
Strong Plus
• Experience with multi-tenant SaaS architecture and tenant isolation patterns
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure (App Services, SQL, Service Bus, Key Vault, etc.)
• Experience with CI/CD tooling and deployment automation
• Background in financial systems - payments, invoicing, reconciliation, audit trails
• Exposure to event-driven architecture, background job processing,and async workflows.
• Prior experience in a tech lead, staff engineer, or equivalent hands-on senior role.
What We Offer
• Competitive salary and benefits
• A small team where your decisions actually shape the product
• Hard problems worth solving - no ticket-factory work
• Flexibility and trust to get things done your way
About the Role
Unico Connect is an AI-first technology partner that builds custom mobile, web, and AI products for clients across multiple geographies. We are hiring a Backend Engineer for a dedicated client engagement building an AI-powered application builder platform.
The backend is the operational core of the product: it manages user projects and sessions, coordinates long-running AI agent workloads, maintains project state, and serves as the integration layer between the frontend, the AI system, and the underlying infrastructure.
The mandatory requirement is hands-on production experience shipping Node.js services, with end-to-end ownership of API design, data modelling, and at least one production system involving background job processing or event-driven patterns.
Responsibilities
API and service development: Design and build REST APIs in Node.js with TypeScript. Cover authentication, session management, input validation, structured error handling, streaming responses (SSE, WebSockets), and rate limiting. Maintain clean API contracts that the frontend and AI system can rely on.
Database design and management: Own PostgreSQL schema design for product domains including user accounts, projects, file trees, session state, and generated artefacts. Write efficient queries, manage migrations, and optimise for read patterns that serve a real-time editor experience.
Caching strategy: Implement and maintain caching with Redis for session data, project state, and frequently read configuration. Design cache invalidation logic that keeps the editor experience consistent without stale reads.
Queue and background job management: Implement and operate background job infrastructure using BullMQ or equivalent. AI agent runs are long-running and stateful; handle retries, failure states, priority queues, and concurrency limits.
AI system integration: Build the integration layer between the backend and the AI agent system. Manage job dispatch, result handling, streaming output to the frontend, and error propagation.
Multi-tenancy and access control: Implement tenant data isolation, RBAC, and resource ownership enforcement across all API surfaces.
Observability and reliability: Instrument services with structured logging, metrics, and tracing. Write defensive code with sensible timeouts, fallback behaviour, and circuit breaking on external dependencies.
Testing and code quality: Write unit and integration tests for the services you ship. Review the work of peers and contribute to shared engineering conventions.
Requirements
• Hands-on production Node.js experience (mandatory) — must have personally shipped at least one feature area end to end in a production Node.js service, owning API design, data modelling, and testing.
• 3 to 5 years of professional backend engineering experience. Candidates with slightly less time but strong demonstrated ownership are welcome to apply.
• Strong Node.js and TypeScript. Production experience with Express, NestJS, or Fastify. Solid with async patterns, streaming, error handling, and building services that run reliably under sustained load.
• PostgreSQL depth. Schema design, query writing, indexing, and migrations on at least one production system.
• Redis and caching. Production experience using Redis for caching and session management. Understands cache invalidation trade-offs.
• Queue and background job systems. Hands-on with BullMQ, RabbitMQ, SQS, or equivalent. Experience managing retries, dead-letter queues, job priority, and concurrency control.
• AWS working knowledge. Comfortable with EC2, S3, RDS, SQS, and IAM. Familiar with Docker and basic deployment and environment management.
• Strong written and spoken English. Able to communicate clearly with engineers across disciplines and write precise technical documentation.
Nice to Have
Experience integrating with AI or LLM services (streaming responses, structured outputs, retry patterns); WebSocket or SSE implementation for real-time features; multi-tenant SaaS product experience; GraphQL; OpenTelemetry instrumentation; prior work on developer tools or editor-style products.
