Senior Backend / Fullstack Developer

A cutting-edge deep-tech startup is looking for a Senior Backend / Full-Stack Developer (backend-leaning) to join its core engineering team and help build advanced vision intelligence systems for early threat detection - including drones, boats, and other targets at the edge of visibility.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys ownership, working across the stack, solving complex engineering challenges, and building meaningful real-world technology.

What you’ll do:

• Own and build backend services in a distributed, event-driven system
• Develop real-time data pipelines between edge devices and operator systems
• Design and evolve core system architecture and data flows
• Build and maintain features in Vue 3 + TypeScript when needed
• Develop and scale a large, production-grade TypeScript codebase
• Drive reliability, performance, and scalability in production systems
• Work closely with product and engineering in a highly hands-on environment

Requirements:

• 5+ years of production backend engineering experience
• Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript + NestJS (must)
• Strong experience with Vue 3 (must)
• Experience with distributed systems and event-driven architectures
• Strong experience with MongoDB (Mongoose), Redis, RabbitMQ
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions) and Docker-based deployments
• Ability to independently design and deliver end-to-end systems
• Strong engineering judgment and ownership mindset
• Experience working in large-scale, evolving production systems

Nice to have:

• Real-time streaming systems (RTSP / WebRTC / HLS / DASH)
• Geospatial / IoT / telemetry-heavy systems
• Background in mission-critical / defense / security domains
