Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Backend-Oriented)

Job Description

Job Description

We’re looking for a full-stack engineer who’s most excited about backend systems, data modeling, and infrastructure. You’ll join a small, collaborative team that builds the technology behind Drug Hunter’s platform.

This role is mostly remote, but our team gets together periodically in person to plan, collaborate, and build together. We’re a small group, so everyone wears multiple hats and contributes where the need is greatest. That said, your focus will be on backend-related projects such as APIs, data integrations, and infrastructure.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop APIs and backend services (NestJS / Node.js, Python)
• Implement and maintain data models and integrations between systems
• Build and manage background job queues (BullMQ, Redis)
• Work across the stack when needed (e.g. connect backend APIs to front-end apps)
• Set up and maintain development and QA environments across the stack
• Deploy and operate services in Docker and Kubernetes
• Monitor and optimize system performance, reliability, and scalability
• Automate workflows and infrastructure tasks (Python, Bash)
• Collaborate on architecture for scalable, maintainable backend systems
