Buenro

About The Role

Buenro is seeking a highly experienced Senior Backend Engineer to lead our growing software engineering team. You will work closely with our CTO to build and maintain our NestJS app, ensuring world-class availability, performance, and scalability. This role involves shipping the world’s first tech platform for building connections in real life, delivering low latency, secure, and fault-tolerant backend solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Overseeing and allocating backend resources to achieve 100% test coverage.
  • Working with our Message Queues and In-Memory databases for higher performance and efficiency.
  • Mentoring and leading junior developers.
  • Shaping engineering culture.

Required Qualifications

  • Expert in backend applications and API development with minimum 7 years experience.
  • Very comfortable with MongoDB and strong with indexes, aggregation pipelines, sharding, replica sets, and schema design.
  • Expert with NoSQL databases and strong understanding of document modeling, data denormalization, consistency models, and performance tuning in a distributed environment.
  • Experience leading engineering in Node/Nest in a structured team environment within the last 3 years.
  • Comfortable with ORMs (Prisma preferred).
  • Previously led teams in a structured environment.

Some Things That Might Help You Stand Out (But Aren’t Requirements)

  • DevOps experience.
  • Worked as an architect.

About You

  • Described by past co-workers as someone who just gets it done and brings joy to the daily grind of the team.
  • A planner at heart that has been through the chaos of startups and learned how to be adaptable and flexible.
  • Results will always speak for themselves but how we get there, and that we get there together, matters.
  • Top 1% communicator - comfortable articulating yourself in written and verbal English.
  • Document-first attitude to work.
  • In love with great code, and take pride in the structure and elegance of your pull requests.
  • Passionate about travel and curious about the world and the people in it.
  • Comfortable working in CET business hours, and flexible to teammates in other timezones.
