Full Job Description
Position - Backend Engineer Experience: 5 to 7 years Primary Focus: Backend development, bug fixing, API/microservice development, production support Project: Overwatch, a NestJS/Nx monorepo with gRPC-based backend microservices Role Summary We are looking for a backend engineer to work on an existing production-grade codebase involving NestJS micro services, gRPC APIs, PostgreSQL/TypeORM, Redis, Kafka, Neo4j, telemetry pipelines, device management, authentication, alerting, and API gateway services. The person will primarily work on fixing existing bugs, improving backend reliability, and developing new backend features. Since AI coding agents may be used, we do not expect the person to manually remember every syntax detail. However, they must be strong at understanding system behavior, debugging, validating correctness, and making sound engineering decisions. Key Responsibilities Understand existing backend services and business flows across the monorepo. Debug and fix issues in NestJS/gRPC microservices. Develop new backend features in existing services such as auth, user, customer, device, discovery, telemetry, topology, alert manager, and HTTP API gateway. Work with protobuf contracts and ensure API changes are backward-compatible where required. Investigate issues across service boundaries, databases, queues, cache, and infrastructure. Write or update unit, integration, and e2e tests where appropriate. Improve logging, error handling, observability, and operational reliability. Work with PostgreSQL, TypeORM migrations, Redis, Kafka, Elasticsearch, Neo4j, and related backend infrastructure. Collaborate with frontend, DevOps, QA, and product stakeholders to deliver complete features. Document important technical decisions, API changes, and debugging findings. Required Skills 5 to 7 years of backend software engineering experience. Strong experience with Node.js and TypeScript. Practical experience with NestJS or similar backend frameworks. Good understanding of
