[Hiring] (Senior) Node.js Developer @Netguru

Role Description

We are looking for a Senior Node.js Developer. This role is fully remote, we accept candidates from anywhere around the globe, given that candidates are within an acceptable time-zone difference to UTC+4 (at least 5 hours of overlap).

• Salary: up to 35 EUR/h (on a B2B)
• Start date: September 2026
• Duration: till 31.12.2026
• Engagement: Full-time

We are looking for Software Engineers with roughly 5-8 years of experience, able to do without supervision:

• Design services using well-understood patterns for iterative, autonomous development and future scaling.
• Design for expected peak load rather than average.
• Build components other teams can adopt, with documentation and a migration path.
• Diagnose issues across service boundaries.
• Write architecture decision records that capture why a decision was made.
• Design with abuse in mind by default.

Also required:

• Reading and being able to explain every line of AI-generated code you ship.
• Testing that actually covers edge and failure cases.
• Working command of OWASP Top 10 and secure-by-default habits.
• Strong written English.
• A collaborative style.

Responsibilities

This isn't a "managed team" gig and it isn't ticket-closing work. The client has strong internal engineers already — what they're bringing in is deep system design judgement:

• Help deciding what to build, where the boundaries sit, what breaks first under load, and what's expensive to change a year from now.
• You'll pair directly with their engineering manager and team, inside their existing rituals (planning, standups, design review).
• Your designs go into production — not into a slide deck.

What you'd actually be doing:

• Digging into an existing multi-product architecture to understand why it looks the way it does before proposing changes.
• Contributing to an honest, evidence-based assessment of code and design quality.
• Writing RFCs and ADRs for new and evolving systems.
• Working on extend-vs-rebuild decisions with the migration path built in from day one.
• Working with real constraints: multi-currency payments, fraud and abuse exposure, PCI DSS scope, third-party supplier integrations, and traffic spikes up to 65x baseline.

Benefits

• 100% remote work.
• Work with an experienced team of developers.
• Continuous development of your hard and soft skills.
• Long-term collaboration on challenging products.

What will happen next?

• We will invite you for a meeting with our recruiter.
• Next, you'll participate in the client interview.

If you need any disability-related adaptation at any step of the recruitment process – simply let the recruiter know! We'd be happy to help.
