The existing backlog is substantial and most work requires deep backend refactoring and maintenance of legacy components. The team already includes several full-stack engineers focused on the FE side.

Now we need a backend-focused engineer who can:

• Support the team in reducing technical debt,
• Deliver new features efficiently,
• Work proactively without relying on detailed documentation,

Responsibilities:

• Work on 80% product development and 20% maintenance.
• Refactor and modernize legacy backend components in NodeJS.
• Handle some AngularJS tasks when required (not full frontend responsibility).
• Reduce technical and security debt across the codebase.
• Support on-premise and Azure deployments.
• Collaborate closely with the product team, ask questions early, and identify issues proactively.
• Follow Jira workflows, break down tasks properly, and deliver consistently.

Must-Have Skills:

• Strong backend experience with NodeJS.
• Solid working ability with AngularJS.
• Experience with on-prem and Azure environments.
• Comfortable working with limited documentation and a large legacy codebase.
• Strong ownership, delivery mindset, and good communication.

Technical Bonus - DevOps literacy (Docker, pipelines, VM upgrade, connectivity debugging) 

• Experience upgrading Linux VMs, Docker images, and outdated infrastructure.
• Ability to troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines, connectivity issues, and deployment environments.
• Familiarity with working on large-scale systems with high technical debt and poor documentation.
• Comfortable handling both backend development and light DevOps tasks needed to modernize the platform.

• Fully-remote working (CET timezone)
• NET salary (PIT will be covered by the company)
