What you will be doing:

• Build and ship features in our Node.js (and now migrating to TypeScript) codebase that directly impact user experience and help move the top and bottom line of the business.
• Collaborate closely with our product, design and data team to build innovative features to deliver a world class product to our customers. At STAGE, product managers don’t “tell” what to build. In fact, we all collaborate on how to solve a problem for our customers and the business. Engineering plays a big part in it.
• Design scalable platforms that empower our product and marketing teams to rapidly experiment.
• Own the quality of our products by writing automated tests, reviewing code, making systems observable and resilient to failures.
• Drive code quality and pay down architectural debt by continuous analysis of our codebases and systems, and continuous refactoring.
• Architect our systems for faster iterations, releasability, scalability and high availability using practices like Domain Driven Design, Event Driven Architecture, Cloud Native Architecture and Observability.
• Set the engineering culture with the rest of the team by defining how we should work as a team, set standards for quality, and improve the speed of engineering execution.

The role could be ideal for you if you:

• Experience of 4-6 years of working in backend engineering with at least 2 years of production experience in TypeScript, Express.js (or another popular framework like Nest.js) and MongoDB (or any popular database like MySQL, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, etc.).
• Well versed with one or more architectures and design patterns such as MVC, Domain Driven Design, CQRS, Event Driven Architecture, Cloud Native Architecture, etc.
• Experienced in writing automated tests (especially integration tests) and Continuous Integration. At STAGE, engineers own quality and hence, writing automated tests is crucial to the role.
• Experience with managing production infrastructure using technologies like public cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.). Bonus: if you have experience in using Kubernetes.
• Experience in observability techniques like code instrumentation for metrics, tracing and logging.
• Care deeply about code quality, code reviews, software architecture (think about Object Oriented Programming, Clean Code, etc.), scalability and reliability. Bonus: if you have experience in this from your past roles.
• Understand the importance of shipping fast in a startup environment and constantly try to find ingenious ways to achieve the same.
• Collaborate well with everyone on the team. We communicate a lot and don’t hesitate to get quick feedback from other members on the team sooner than later.
• Can take ownership of goals and deliver them with high accountability.
