Job Requirements
- Proven experience in software engineering, with deep expertise in Node.js.
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and modern full-stack or backend architectures.
- A track record of solving complex architectural challenges and generating intellectual property.
- Ability to thrive in a 100% remote environment while staying tightly aligned with APAC-based time zones.
- Experience in highly regulated industries (e.g., Fintech, FX, or Payments) is a significant plus.
- Fluent in English and the ability to navigate complex technical discussions with stakeholders.
Benefits
- Integration: You are treated as a core team member, not an "outsourced" resource, with opportunities for high-level technical ownership.
