POSITION OVERVIEW: Opiniion is seeking a backend software engineer with strong SQL and Node.js skills. We are migrating from MongoDB to PostgreSQL across a complex Node.js application. We need someone who can own this — not just run scripts, but design the schema, execute a safe migration, and guide us to write better application code on the other side. We also need someone who has experience writing fast, secure, and clean APIs and application code in Node.js. The absolute floor for experience is 5 years. RESPONSIBILITIES: - Write and maintain Node.js API services - Architect the relational schema from our existing document-based data model - Design and execute a zero-downtime migration strategy (dual-write, expand-contract, etc.) - Own DB performance — indexing, query analysis, connection pooling - Work with Node.js to read, process, and optimize MongoDB and SQL - Work inside Docker locally and on AWS QUALIFICATIONS: - Have shipped a production NoSQL → relational migration, and can walk us through it - Have a strong background in backend software engineering, and understand relevant computer science fundamentals - Know PostgreSQL deeply (JSONB, CTEs, window functions, transactions, EXPLAIN ANALYZE) - Are competent and autonomous at writing Node.js code - Have used schema migration tooling - Are comfortable in AWS (RDS, ECS, IAM, VPC basics) - Think about data integrity first, speed second - Are willing to use AI in your daily development work You’re NOT the right person if: - Haven’t worked in Node.js before - Can’t write raw SQL — we’re not hiding behind abstractions here - Can’t explain database migrations and other core concepts - Need hand-holding on Docker, AWS, or advanced SQL - Are opposed to using AI in your daily development work TECHNICAL SKILLS: - Proficiency in Node.js — building APIs and service-layer code - Deep PostgreSQL knowledge - Experience with MongoDB and NoSQL-to-relational migration patterns - Docker for local development environments - AWS fundamentals: RDS, ECS, IAM, VPC OUR TECHNOLOGY STACK: - Vue.js, Node.js, AWS, Docker, and MongoDB (Soon changing to PostgreSQL) - GitHub, CircleCI OPINIION’S CULTURE: At Opiniion, we take our work seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously!

We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity, ethics, and excellence in all we do while fostering an environment where people enjoy coming to work. We believe in collaboration, innovation, and building a team that truly cares—about our clients, their residents, and each other.
