Our client is one of Europe's fastest-growing mobile companies with 5 million active customers, 1,000 employees worldwide, and operations in five countries. The client is using the mobile virtual network operator business model.
We are looking for a Senior Backend result-oriented developer who has good knowledge and experience of Nest.js.
Responsibilities:
Own microservices in NestJS (TypeScript): define module boundaries, version APIs, and ship resilient, well-tested services. Design internal communication: implement REST/gRPC/event-driven patterns (e.g., request/response, pub/sub), handle retries, timeouts, backoff, and circuit breakers. Implement secure JWT auth: access/refresh lifecycles, rotation, audience/issuer validation, revocation/blacklisting, and token storage best practices. Deliver payment integrations: integrate with gateways (e.g., Stripe/Adyen/Braintree), implement idempotent operations, handle captures/refunds/disputes, and reconcile via signed webhooks. Build and consume webhooks: define payload contracts, verify signatures/HMAC, ensure idempotency, and implement robust retry and DLQ strategies. Enable real-time features with WebSockets: use NestJS Gateways/Socket.IO or ws for presence, notifications, and fan-out at scale; secure and rate-limit connections. Use Redis/Valkey effectively: design cache keys/TTLs, apply cache-aside/write-through, implement distributed locks, queues/streams, pub/sub, and mitigate hot keys. Containerize and run locally: craft efficient multi-stage Docker builds, add healthchecks, and orchestrate multi-service dev stacks with docker-compose. Quality & reliability: write unit/integration/e2e tests (Jest/Supertest), add schema validation (class-validator/OpenAPI), and instrument with logs/metrics/traces. Collaborate across teams: review PRs, write concise design docs, and partner with product, frontend, and data to deliver measurable outcomes.Requirements:
5+ years building backend systems; 3+ years NestJS + TypeScript in production. Strong Docker and docker-compose skills (multi-stage builds, image slimming, healthchecks). Solid microservice design: domain boundaries, API versioning, idempotency, saga/choreography, and eventual consistency (outbox/inbox). Hands-on JWT implementation in distributed systems. Demonstrated payment experience (idempotency keys, reconciliation jobs) and webhooks (HMAC/signatures, replay protection, retries). Built and scaled WebSockets features in production. Proficiency with Redis/Valkey for caching and real-time patterns; strong SQL fundamentals (PostgreSQL/MySQL) and practical ORM experience (TypeORM/Prisma). Testing mindset with meaningful coverage and CI checks; working knowledge of security best practices (OWASP, secrets management, least privilege). Comfortable with telemetry (structured logs, metrics, tracing) and on-call ownership.Nice to have:
Kong Gateway (or similar API gateway) for routing, auth, rate limiting, and observability. Kubernetes/Helm; service meshes (Istio/Linkerd). Event platforms (NATS/Kafka/RabbitMQ) and streaming patterns. GraphQL (Apollo/NestJS) including subscriptions.We offer*:
