ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to design and build scalable middleware services powering digital ordering, payments, loyalty, and third‑party integrations across a major consumer platform. You will develop serverless applications using AWS Lambda and API Gateway, build Node.js/TypeScript microservices, design event‑driven architectures with SQS/SNS, and implement infrastructure as code with Terraform. The role includes active use of AI‑assisted development tools as a core part of the daily engineering workflow.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Develop serverless applications using AWS Lambda and API Gateway.
- Build and maintain Node.js/TypeScript microservices.
- Build infrastructure as code using Terraform.
- Leverage AI‑assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, and similar) as a core part of daily engineering work — from code generation and refactoring to test coverage and documentation. Champion AI tooling adoption across the team.
- Create integrations with delivery providers and payment platforms.
- Collaborate with business stakeholders and product teams to understand functional and technical requirements; translate those into scalable, maintainable architecture and implementation plans.
- Conduct constructive code reviews and provide technical design guidance to peers and junior engineers, raising the overall quality and consistency of team output.
- Enforce data governance, security policies, and compliance standards throughout the software development lifecycle.
- Implement secure authentication and identity flows using Amazon Cognito.
MUST HAVES
- 4+ years of backend development experience.
- Demonstrated experience building and operating RESTful and/or GraphQL APIs at scale.
- Experience with serverless architectures on AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, SQS/SNS).
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and source control workflows (Git, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
- Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation).
- Solid understanding of integration patterns: event‑driven architecture, webhooks, async messaging, and pub/sub.
- Experience integrating with third‑party platforms and vendor APIs (e.g., delivery aggregators, POS systems, loyalty platforms, or similar ecosystem partners).
- Ability to translate ambiguous business requirements into clear technical specifications.
- Collaborative mindset with a willingness to give and receive candid code review feedback.
- Strong debugging, root‑cause analysis, and production incident management skills.
NICE TO HAVES
- DoorDash, Uber Eats, or similar delivery integrations.
- Restaurant, retail, or QSR experience.
- Experience with multi‑region AWS deployments and global traffic management (Akamai, CloudFront).
- Familiarity with identity and authentication patterns: OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, AWS Cognito.
- Hands‑on experience with observability platforms (Dynatrace, Datadog, CloudWatch).
- Experience prompting, fine‑tuning, or orchestrating LLMs/AI agents as part of a software delivery workflow.
- Experience in QSR, retail, or e‑commerce domains.
