About ZigMe
ZigMe is building a modern platform that helps students become job-ready and helps recruiters hire better, faster—through structured profiles, assessments, and hiring workflows.
Role Summary
We’re hiring a mid-level Backend + DevOps engineer who can build and maintain reliable Node.js services and also take ownership of deployments, uptime, and infra on DigitalOcean. This is a hands-on role with real ownership.
Key Responsibilities
Backend (Node.js)
Build and maintain REST APIs for ZigMe’s core platform modules.
Implement authentication, authorization (roles/permissions), validations, and secure API patterns.
Improve performance through clean architecture, caching patterns, batching, and efficient service design.
Write maintainable code with proper logging, error handling, and API versioning.
Integrate with third-party services (email/SMS/WhatsApp, payments, analytics, etc. as needed).
Database (MongoDB)
Design and evolve schemas/data models aligned with product needs.
Optimize with indexes, query tuning, aggregation pipelines, and data cleanup strategies.
Own backups, retention, and restore readiness.
DevOps (Docker + DigitalOcean)
Containerize services using Docker; manage dev/stage/prod consistency.
Deploy and operate on DigitalOcean (Droplets, Load Balancers, Spaces, Managed DB if applicable).
Set up/maintain CI/CD (GitHub Actions or similar), with rollback-safe deployments.
Implement observability basics: monitoring, alerting, logs, and incident response.
Maintain security hygiene: TLS, firewalling, access control, secrets management.
Must-Have Skills
2–5 years experience building production systems with Node.js (Express).
Strong MongoDB understanding (schema design + performance optimization).
Real-world experience with Docker and deploying backend services.
Comfortable with Linux, server operations, and DigitalOcean infra.
Solid fundamentals: API security, rate limiting, auth patterns, debugging, and code quality.
Good to Have
Redis, queues/workers (BullMQ), background jobs, cron workflows
Nginx, reverse proxies, load balancing
Monitoring tools (Grafana/Prometheus/ELK/Sentry/Datadog etc.)
Basic security best practices (OWASP awareness)
What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
Ship and stabilize core APIs with clean patterns and strong logging.
Improve deployment workflow (CI/CD, rollback, environment management).
Reduce API latency and DB load via indexing + query optimizations.
Set up dependable monitoring/alerts and improve uptime.
Compensation
As per market + experience (discussed during interview).
