Job Description
Lead the backend architecture behind server\-side systems that have to stay fast, reliable, and secure under real production load. As a Senior Node.js Web Developer at Talentica, you’ll work with our client Autodesk, building TypeScript\-based Node.js services and RESTful APIs, solving engineering challenges such as asynchronous, event\-driven architecture at scale.
### **What You'll Own**
* Design and build server\-side services in Node.js and TypeScript, using frameworks like Express.js or Nest.js.
* Own the RESTful APIs connecting front\-end and back\-end systems, including their performance and reliability.
* Design database schemas and optimize queries across MongoDB, MySQL, or PostgreSQL.
* Implement authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth) to protect sensitive data.
* Own code quality across the team: lead code reviews, mentor junior developers, and debug production issues.
* Work with DevOps to ensure smooth deployment and integration, and maintain technical documentation for the codebase and APIs.
### **What We Need**
* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
* 5\+ years of hands\-on experience developing back\-end applications using Node.js.
* Exceptional proficiency in TypeScript.
* Advanced expertise in one or more web frameworks (e.g., Express.js, Nest.js).
* In\-depth understanding of server\-side JavaScript, asynchronous programming, and event\-driven architecture.
* Experience with databases such as MongoDB, MySQL, or PostgreSQL.
* Familiarity with authentication and authorization mechanisms (e.g., JWT, OAuth).
* Knowledge of front\-end technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript) is a plus.
* Experience with version control systems, preferably Git.
* Strong problem\-solving and debugging skills.
### **Why It's Worth Your Time**
* You'll bring AI\-assisted tools into your daily TypeScript and Node.js development workflow.
* Owning API performance and database design for a production system is how you'll grow into a stronger backend architect.
* You'll be guided by hands\-on senior engineers who review your API and database design closely, and help you grow.
* You'll be surrounded by talented peers with strong educational backgrounds, and pushed to sharpen your backend architecture instincts working alongside them.
### **About Talentica**
Since 2003, Talentica has built software exclusively for tech companies — from early\-stage startups to large, established enterprises. We've partnered with startups from their earliest stages through to successful acquisitions, doing the kind of deep product and engineering work that moves a company's valuation, not generalist consulting or staff augmentation. Our \~600\-person team is among the strongest in the industry, drawn heavily from the IITs and NITs — which means the software you'll build is genuinely differentiated, and the work is demanding enough that you'll keep learning regardless of how senior you are.
