Responsibilities

Server-side Application Development:

• Develop and maintain server-side applications using Node.js, JavaScript, and relevant frameworks (e.g., Express.js).
• Implement business logic, data manipulation, and algorithmic functions to support application functionality.
• Collaborate with front-end developers to integrate server-side logic with user interfaces.

API Design and Development:

• Design and develop robust and scalable RESTful APIs or GraphQL endpoints to support client applications and third-party integrations.
• Implement authentication and authorization mechanisms, such as JWT (JSON Web Tokens) or OAuth, to ensure secure access to APIs.
• Optimize API performance by implementing caching, pagination, rate limiting, and efficient data retrieval techniques.
• Database Integration and Management:
• Integrate applications with databases such as MySQL, MongoDB, or PostgreSQL using ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) libraries or native database drivers.
• Design database schemas, optimize queries, and implement data models to ensure efficient and reliable data storage and retrieval.
• Perform database migrations, backups, and recovery procedures as necessary.

Code Optimization and Performance:

• Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code following best practices and coding standards.
• Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, and other issues impacting application performance.
• Use profiling and monitoring tools to analyze and optimize application performance and resource usage.

Testing and Quality Assurance:

• Write unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests to ensure the reliability and stability of the application.
• Conduct code reviews and participate in peer programming sessions to maintain code quality and share knowledge.
• Collaborate with quality assurance teams to identify and resolve software defects and improve test coverage.

Documentation and Collaboration:

• Document technical specifications, API endpoints, and architectural decisions to ensure maintainability and knowledge sharing.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, including front-end developers, product managers, and system administrators, to understand requirements, provide technical insights, and deliver solutions.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• Proven experience as a Node.js Developer or similar role, with a strong portfolio demonstrating back-end development expertise.
• Proficiency in JavaScript and Node.js runtime environment, including relevant frameworks (e.g., Express.js, Koa.js, Nest.js).

• Experience with RESTful API development, including API design principles, authentication mechanisms, and data validation.
• Familiarity with database systems, such as MySQL, MongoDB, or PostgreSQL, and expertise in database integration and management.
• Knowledge of testing frameworks (e.g., Mocha, Jest) and testing methodologies for Node.js applications.
• Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and collaborative development workflows.
• Understanding of security best practices, such as data encryption, input validation, and protection against common web vulnerabilities.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to think critically and analytically.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills to collaborate effectively with diverse stakeholders.
• Attention to detail and a commitment to writing clean, maintainable code.
• Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure) and containerization (e.g., Docker) is a plus.
