Lead NodeJS

Hello, Good Morning! Hope you are doing well. This is Steve from Sidram Technologies. We have an immediate requirement for Lead NodeJS, and I have found your profile in Ceipal, it aligns the best with the client's needs. Please find the JD below and let me know your thoughts on it. Lead NodeJS Irving, TX Only W2 Short Description For Internal Candidates Description for Internal Candidates The Role Digital API team is looking for a hands-on Tech Lead with deep Node.js/TypeScript expertise to design and deliver domain-driven microservices for customer-facing digital experiences. You ll own greenfield builds from zero-to-production, lead engineers by example (coding ~70% of the time), and drive cross-team triage while keeping leadership proactively informed. What You Ll Do • Design & build domain-driven, event-aware microservices in Node.js/TypeScript (Express/Fastify/NestJS) with clean, testable code. • Architect greenfield systems: service boundaries, data models, REST APIs, event streams, CI/CD, observability, and runtime topology. • Set API standards: versioning, OpenAPI/Swagger, pagination, error contracts, resiliency patterns (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers). • Own production readiness: SLOs, dashboards, alerting, runbooks; lead incident triage/bridge calls and drive blameless RCAs. • Collaborate across teams (web, mobile, data, security, ops) to unblock work, sequence dependencies, and land integrated releases. • Communicate proactively with leadership: crisp status, risk/mitigation, dependencies, and measurable outcomes. • Raise the bar: code reviews, engineering best practices, mentoring, pair programming, tech talks, and documentation. • Think two steps ahead: anticipate edge cases, scaling, operability, and cost; recommend pragmatic sequencing and trade-offs. Tech Stack You ll Work With • Languages/Frameworks: Node.js, TypeScript, Express/Fastify/NestJS • APIs: REST, OpenAPI/Swagger, OAuth2/OIDC, JWT • Data: PostgreSQL/MySQL, NoSQL (MongoDB/DynamoDB), Redis cache • Messaging/Streaming: Kafka/RabbitMQ (sagas, outbox, idempotency) • Cloud & Platform: One major cloud (AWS/Azure/Google Cloud Platform), Docker, Kubernetes, API Gateway/Ingress, IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation) • CI/CD & Observability: GitHub Actions/Jenkins, ELK/Dynatrace, feature flags, OpenTelemetry, Datadog/New Relic/Prometheus, log aggregation What You Ll Bring • 8+ years backend engineering (or equivalent impact), 3+ years technical leadership on product teams. • Expert-level Node.js/TypeScript with proven delivery of domain-driven microservices at scale. • Strong grasp of DDD (entities/aggregates/bounded contexts), event-driven architectures, and microservice patterns (saga, outbox, circuit breaker). • Designed secure, resilient public APIs used by web/mobile clients; deep understanding of authN/authZ (OAuth2/OIDC), secrets, and TLS. • Production experience with Kubernetes and cloud-native deployment, CI/CD, and observability (metrics, traces, logs, SLOs). • Demonstrated success leading triage/incident response and driving RCAs to lasting improvements. • Outstanding communication able to simplify complex trade-offs, tell a delivery story, and keep partners aligned. • Bias for action: you go the extra mile, anticipate the next two steps, and ship high-quality software. Nice to Have • Experience in telecom (ordering, provisioning, billing, identity) or large consumer digital platforms. • API gateways (Apigee/Kong), rate limiting/quotas, multi-tenant patterns. • Performance tuning, capacity planning, and cost optimization in cloud environments.
