As a Cloud Node.js Developer, you will design and implement backend services and integrations powering our GenAI suite for enterprise systems. You will own end-to-end features — from design to deployment — focusing on scalable multi-tenant SaaS architectures and AI-driven workflows.

While experience with SAP BTP or CAP is a plus, this role emphasizes Node.js/TypeScript backend development, containerized deployments, and modern cloud engineering best practices.

Key responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain Node.js/TypeScript backend services and APIs for multi-tenant cloud applications.
• Work with relational databases (e.g. HANA, PostgreSQL), handle schema migrations, and optimize SQL performance.
• Implement tenant management logic (onboarding, configuration, cleanup) and integration flows.
• Develop integrations using REST APIs or event-based architectures.
• Where applicable, deploy and operate services on SAP BTP using CAP, HDI containers, or approuter setups.
• Contribute to DevOps pipelines (GitLab CI/CD) and maintain automated deployment workflows.
• Participate in architecture discussions, sprint planning, and release coordination.

Required Skills & Experience

• 3–5 years of professional software development experience.
• Strong hands-on experience in Node.js/TypeScript backend development.
• Familiarity with cloud-native principles (12-factor apps, configuration, logging, scaling).
• Good understanding of SQL and relational database design.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and container-based deployment (Docker or similar).
• Ability to take ownership of end-to-end features and collaborate across teams.
• Good written and spoken English.

Nice to have

• Experience with SAP BTP, CAP, or HANA-based services.
• Knowledge of GenAI concepts (RAG, embeddings, document processing).
• Python microservices and MTA-based deployment.
• Experience with UI frameworks (SAPUI5/Fiori or React).
• Familiarity with ABAP extensions, Workzone, or identity/authorization models.
