Reports to: Technical Project Manager – Platform Delivery & Architecture

🎯 Mission
You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping, building, and scaling the core platform that powers AirNxt’s next-gen aviation ERP. Your primary strength is backend engineering — designing APIs, services, and systems in Node.js — but you’re equally comfortable diving into React UIs to ship features end-to-end.
This isn’t a siloed role. You’ll work closely with PMs, designers, and engineers to take user stories from idea to production, while setting engineering standards, mentoring others, and making smart trade-offs between velocity and architecture.
⸻
🛠 What You’ll Do
• Design and develop scalable backend services and APIs using Node.js and NestJS
• Build and enhance web application interfaces using React (Web)
• Own end-to-end feature delivery — from DB schema to UI interactions
• Write clean, testable, and maintainable code across the stack
• Collaborate with product, design, and QA to break down features and deliver iteratively
• Guide architectural decisions across backend and frontend boundaries
• Review code, mentor engineers, and advocate for clean patterns and modularity
• Contribute to DevOps practices including CI/CD workflows, containerization, and environment configs
• Troubleshoot production issues and continuously improve platform reliability
⸻
✅ You Should Have
• 8+ years of full stack software development experience
• Advanced backend engineering skills in Node.js, with strong grasp of architecture patterns
• Solid hands-on experience with React and frontend application design
• Ability to ship complete features across the stack independently
• Familiarity with microservices, API contracts, event-driven patterns, and real-time systems
• Experience with CI/CD tooling (Docker, Cloud Build, etc.)
• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
• Bonus: GCP experience, aviation/ERP/logistics background, or exposure to high-compliance systems
⸻
🧬 Our Stack & Context
• Backend: Node.js, NestJS, Express, microservices
• Frontend: React Web
• Cloud: GCP (Pub/Sub, Firestore, Load Balancer, GKE)
• DevOps: Docker, CI/CD, scripts for environment provisioning
• Infra Challenges: real-time data, audit logs, cross-module data flow, mobile-friendly delivery
⸻
🌍 Culture Fit
• You move fast but sweat the right details
• You write code that’s clear today and adaptable tomorrow
• You collaborate generously, mentor naturally, and take ownership without handholding
• You don’t wait for tickets — you find the gaps and build the bridge
• You care deeply about developer experience, performance, and maintainability
⸻
🚀 Success in 90 Days
• You’ve shipped production-grade backend modules and supported UI features
• You’ve contributed to improving architecture patterns and onboarding docs
• You’ve unblocked other engineers and raised the bar in code reviews
• Platform modules are more testable, modular, and reliable
• You’re seen as a go-to partner for backend execution and full stack clarity
