Design and architect scalable GraphQL APIs that serve multiple frontend applications and third‐party integrations
Implement GraphQL schemas, resolvers, and data loaders that optimize query performance and minimize over‐fetching
Build backend services using Node.js and Nest.js that power GraphQL API endpoints
Mentor and guide other engineers on GraphQL best practices, schema design patterns, and performance optimization
Optimize GraphQL query execution, caching strategies, and subscription handling for production workloads
Collaborate with frontend engineers using React to ensure API design meets application needs
Conduct code reviews focused on GraphQL architecture, security, and performance
Work with cloud infrastructure (Azure/AWS) to deploy and monitor GraphQL services in production
Document GraphQL schemas, API patterns, and architectural decisions for team knowledge sharing
Evaluate and integrate GraphQL tooling, monitoring, and developer experience improvements
How You'll Succeed
You design GraphQL schemas that are intuitive, performant, and serve multiple client needs
You communicate effectively about API design decisions and trade‐offs with engineers and stakeholders
You take ownership of GraphQL infrastructure and establish standards that improve team velocity
You balance developer experience with performance and security considerations
You mentor teammates and help elevate GraphQL expertise across the organization
You stay current with GraphQL ecosystem tools and best practices
