Team Setup & Reporting : The Senior Backend Engineer will report directly to the Head of Engineering . Team collaboration at Nas.io is primarily asynchronous due to the distributed nature of our workforce.

Key Responsibilities

  • Backend Feature Development : Collaborate with product managers to design and implement new backend features that align with business goals and user needs. Ensure features are delivered from concept to deployment with high quality.
  • System Architecture & Performance : Continuously improve the architecture of our core systems for better performance, scalability, and maintainability. Participate in technical design discussions and make decisions to enhance system reliability.
  • Infrastructure & DevOps : Enhance and maintain our infrastructure (AWS cloud services and related tooling). Set up and refine CI / CD pipelines as needed to streamline deployments.
  • Monitoring & Alerts : Establish and fine-tune comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting across all platforms. Maintain observability tools to ensure any issues are detected early and accurately, enabling rapid response.
  • Off-Hours Support : Serve as the point person for troubleshooting and responding to backend system issues during off-peak hours (EU daytime / APAC night). Promptly address incidents, mitigate impact, and escalate to the broader engineering team if critical issues arise outside your expertise.
  • Quality & Best Practices : Uphold high code quality standards through code reviews, testing, and documentation. Introduce best practices for coding, error handling, and performance optimization across the backend team.

  • Databases & Caching : Solid experience working with databases (especially MongoDB or other NoSQL / SQL databases) and caching systems like Redis to build efficient data-driven applications.
  • Cloud Infrastructure : Familiarity with cloud platforms, preferably AWS, including services such as EC2, S3, Lambda, etc. Ability to manage and optimize cloud resources for cost and performance.

    • Our Company Values

  • Think in Days : We don't think about how many years something will take, we think about how many days. This is our secret to fast growth.
  • Always Share Secrets : We don't believe in secrets. We share with our followers and our employees what we do and why we do it.
  • Never Miss a Monday : We never miss a meeting. We never miss a deadline. We never miss a commitment. Commitment is at the core of our DNA.
