- Deep expertise in Node.js/NestJS, TypeScript, and distributed system fundamentals
- Experience working with both SQL and NoSQL databases at scale
- Ability to work end-to-end across the stack, especially owning backend complexity and integrating with UI components
- Solid understanding of async workflows, queues, background jobs, webhooks, and system state transitions
- Familiarity with GCP services or willingness to get hands-on with them
- Openness to using AI tools (e.g., Cursor, Github Copilot, Claude Code) to accelerate development and improve code quality
- Strong debugging and system design skills; ability to make pragmatic architectural decisions
Nice to Have:
- Experience with appointment systems, lead funnels, workflow engines, or search infrastructure
