Node js Backend developer

🧭 Tech Lead (Backend / Fullstack | 7–10 Years)

Location: Bangalore (On-Site, Hybrid)

Company Type: Public-Listed Product Company

We’re Building a “Top 1% Engineering Org”

We’re building a high-talent-density, AI-first R&D organization from scratch — inside a publicly listed company undergoing a full-scale transformation.

Think:

→ Rewriting legacy systems into AI-native architectures

→ Embedding LLMs + Agentic AI into core workflows

→ Reimagining platforms, infra, and data systems for the next decade

This is the kind of shift you’d expect from Google, Microsoft, or Meta —

Except you get to build it from day 0 → scale it globally.

About the Role / Team

We are building a next-generation AI-first R&D organization in Bengaluru, focused on solving complex problems across LLMs, Agentic AI systems, distributed computing, and enterprise-scale architectures.

This initiative is part of a publicly listed global company investing heavily in AI-driven transformation, re-architecting its platforms into intelligent, autonomous systems powered by large language models, workflows, and decision engines.

You will be working on:

• Agentic AI systems & LLM-powered workflows
• Distributed, scalable backend systems
• Enterprise-grade AI platforms
• Automation-first engineering environments

🚀 The Mandate

Lead execution of mission-critical systems while staying hands-on — bridging architecture and delivery.

🧩 What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end delivery of complex engineering initiatives (0→1, 1→N)
• Design systems across backend + frontend (if fullstack)
• Translate ambiguous problems into structured technical solutions
• Drive engineering best practices, code quality, and velocity
• Mentor engineers and elevate team performance
• Collaborate with stakeholders on roadmap and execution strategy

🧠 What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in backend systems + optional frontend frameworks
• Proven ability to lead projects and deliver at scale
• Solid understanding of system design and architecture patterns
• Ability to balance speed vs quality vs scalability trade-offs
• Strong communication and leadership without authority
• Strong coding skills in Python / Java / Go / Node.js
• Solid understanding of data structures, system design basics, and backend architecture
• Experience building scalable APIs and services
• Familiarity or curiosity around AI/LLMs, async systems, or event-driven design
• Strong debugging, problem-solving, and ownership mindset

Nice to Have

• Experience integrating LLMs, vector databases, or AI pipelines
• Contributions to architecture at scale
• Experience with Agentic AI / LLM orchestration frameworks
• Background in product engineering or platform companies
• Exposure to global-scale systems (millions of users / high throughput)

🔥 What Sets You Apart

• Experience leading platform builds or major system rewrites
• Exposure to AI systems, LLM integrations, or intelligent workflows
• Built platforms used by millions of users / high-throughput systems
• Experience with event-driven systems, stream processing, or infra platforms
• Prior work on AI/ML platforms, model serving, or intelligent systems

Background: We Commonly See (But Not Limited To)

• Our team often includes engineers from top-tier institutions and strong research or product company or DeepTech or AI Product backgrounds, including:
• Leading engineering schools in India and globally
• Engineers with experience in top product companies, AI startups, or research-driven environments
• That said, we care far more about demonstrated ability, depth, and impact than pedigree alone.

Required Technical Skills:

Backend

• Strong proficiency in Node.js and TypeScript
• Extensive experience with NestJS framework
• Hands-on experience with Prisma ORM and complex database schemas
• Solid understanding of RESTful API design and Swagger documentation
• Proven experience writing unit and integration tests with Jest

Frontend

• Expert-level React knowledge and modern React patterns (hooks, context, etc.)
• Deep understanding of JavaScript and TypeScript fundamentals
• Experience with performance optimization techniques (code splitting, memoization, lazy loading)
• Strong grasp of responsive design and modern CSS practices

General

• Demonstrated experience conducting thorough code reviews
• Commitment to following strict development standards and best practices
• Strong understanding of software engineering principles and design patterns

Note: We are looking for real, hands-on experience—not certifications or copy-paste portfolios. Selected candidates will be given a short real-world task to evaluate skills before interview.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain scalable full-stack applications using MongoDB, Postgresql, Express.js, React.js, and Node.js
• Develop RESTful APIs and integrate them with frontend systems
• Collaborate with designers and project managers for timely project delivery
• Optimize code for performance and scalability
• Troubleshoot, debug, and upgrade applications as needed
• Follow Git-based workflows for version control

Must-Have Skills

• Strong hands-on experience in:
• React.js with hooks, context API, component architecture
• Node.js with Express.js
• MongoDB (CRUD operations, schema design) & Postgresql
• API development and integration
• Strong JavaScript fundamentals (ES6+)
• Basic understanding of deployment (e.g., cPanel, Vercel, Heroku, or VPS)
• Git and GitHub for code versioning

Good-to-Have Skills

• Knowledge of Redux or any other state management tools
• Experience with Next.js or TypeScript
• Familiarity with Tailwind CSS or Material UI
• Experience integrating third-party APIs (e.g., payment gateways, social logins)

Who Should Apply

• You’ve worked on real client projects or have built and shipped working applications.
• You are disciplined and take ownership without constant follow-up.
• You are not here to "fake it till you make it"—you’re here to grow with a real team.
