Job Description:
Looking for a Typescript Architect with a strong background in event-driven microservices, real-time data pipelines (Kafka), and cloud-native application design. The ideal candidate will drive the technical architecture for scalable backend systems leveraging TypeScript/Node.js, DynamoDB, Kafka, and advanced caching and performance optimization strategies.
Responsibilities:
- Architect scalable backend systems using TypeScript/Node.js and event-driven patterns (Kafka, SNS/SQS, or equivalent).
- Design and implement streaming and asynchronous processing pipelines for large-scale workloads.
- Define and enforce data modeling and partitioning strategies for DynamoDB to handle high-write workloads efficiently.
- Establish and optimize caching layers (Redis, Elasticache, DAX, or in-memory caching) for high-performance APIs.
- Perform profiling and performance tuning across the stack (CPU, memory, network, database, I/O).
- Define API contracts, message schemas (Avro/JSON), and versioning standards for inter-service communication.
- Implement observability practices (metrics, tracing, and structured logging) to proactively monitor performance bottlenecks.
- Collaborate with DevOps to ensure CI/CD pipelines, IaC (CloudFormation/Terraform), and autoscaling policies support architectural goals.
- Mentor engineering teams on TypeScript best practices, async programming, and microservice resilience patterns (circuit breaker, retry, backoff, etc.).
- Partner with stakeholders to evolve system architecture in alignment with business growth and product roadmaps.
