- Explore and implement new tools and technologies to keep the stack modern and efficient.

- Strong software development experience (mid-level/senior)
- Strong experience in TypeScript, Node.js, and MongoDB.
- Experience with Express.js, React.js, and Jest is highly regarded.
- Strong understanding of software architecture patterns (microservices, event-driven, layered).
- Hands-on experience with cloud-native development, containerisation, and CI/CD.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to mentor and guide engineers.
- Track record of contributing to or leading architecture and design discussions.
- Experience working for startups is highly regarded
- (Nice to have) Experience with compliance, identity verification, or fintech platforms.
