* Architect and build performant, reliable, and scalable backend systems using TypeScript and AWS, powering everything from payment processing and returns management to customer personalization engines.
* Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in product, design, and operations to rapidly deliver and iterate on new features, ensuring technical excellence and alignment with business goals.
* Champion developer productivity by embracing automation, refining CI/CD pipelines, and integrating AI-powered tooling into our development lifecycle.

* Deep expertise in TypeScript and Node.js for backend development.
* Strong proficiency with relational databases (RDBMS) like PostgreSQL or MySQL, including data modelling and query optimization.
* Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure, specifically AWS (e.g., Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS).
* Demonstrable experience integrating with complex third-party APIs, particularly in an eCommerce context (e.g., payment gateways, fraud detection).
* Familiarity with at least one modern frontend framework (e.g., React, Vue, Angular).
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
* Advanced experience with the Shopify API ecosystem (Admin API, Storefront API, webhooks).
* Experience with other programming languages such as Python or Ruby, especially for data-oriented tasks.
* Knowledge of graph databases like Neo4j.
* A strong understanding of DevOps principles and experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
