Job Description

Senior Backend Engineer, TypeScript, AWS Serverless

HumanIT Digital Consulting

• You'll be working on the backend of an Amsterdam-based trading platform, contributing directly to system architecture design, technical decision-making, and the evolution of a serverless AWS-based infrastructure • The environment is dynamic and intentionally ambiguous — the right candidate will bring structure and technical clarity, not wait for it.

Job Requirements

  • Senior or lead-level experience in TypeScript backend development, with production-grade delivery in complex environments
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS Serverless architecture, specifically AWS Lambda and AWS CDK
  • Experience with DynamoDB or comparable NoSQL database solutions
  • Ability to design and discuss system architecture at a high level — not just implement, but shape and own technical direction
  • Proven capacity to evaluate technical trade-offs and propose well-reasoned alternatives
  • Confidence to challenge assumptions constructively and drive better outcomes through technical debate
  • Ability to work autonomously in ambiguous environments where requirements evolve and clarity needs to be created
  • Familiarity with TypeSpec or similar API specification tooling
  • English B2 or above — required for collaboration with the Amsterdam-based client team
  • Based in Portugal, available to work fully remotely
