Senior Backend Developer (Node.js)

the company is a Riyadh-based corporate venture builder driving Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation in line with Vision 2030. We launch and scale innovative digital ventures across the Middle East.

Our Polish delivery hub is a key part of this journey - a dedicated engineering powerhouse combining European technical excellence with startup agility and enterprise-grade standards. Together, we build impactful products that reach real users, fast.

If you’re a Senior Backend Developer who enjoys green-field challenges, architectural ownership, and shaping how teams build software, we’d love you to join us and co-create the server-side foundation of our next ventures, including our in-house AI-native development system.

What you’ll do as a Senior Backend Developer

• Code smarter and ship faster with Claude Code, Cursor/Windsurf, and any ingenious tools you bring to the team.

• Design and build robust APIs, microservices, and server architectures in Node.js.

• Develop our AI-native platform for developers, with your feedback and features feeding directly into the product roadmap.

• Collaborate remotely with frontend developers, designers, PMs, and engineers across Poland and Saudi Arabia on multiple ventures simultaneously.

• Own the backend lifecycle: architect, implement, optimize, monitor, and scale.

• Champion best practices in API design, database optimization, security, and DevOps automation.

You might be a good fit if you

• Have 7+ years of professional experience in building production, distributed, event-driven Node.js applications and RESTful APIs, with strong technical expertise across backend architectures.

• Are proficient in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and have advanced experience with Nest.js.

• Have solid knowledge of databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis), cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and modern backend architectures such as microservices, serverless, and event-driven systems.

• Have already experimented with Claude Code or other AI pair-programming tools - and can’t imagine going back to coding without them.

• Are experienced with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring/logging systems.

• Communicate confidently in English; Polish is a bonus, as many teammates are based in Poland.

• Thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where switching contexts and wearing multiple hats is part of the fun.

• Believe in craftsmanship - automated testing, clean architecture, security best practices, and performance optimization come naturally to you.

• Understand scalability challenges and know how to design systems that grow smoothly from MVP to millions of users.
