Back End Developer

**Backend Engineer (Node/Typescript/ AWS) $900-950/day 3 Month Contract Hybrid NYC (Midtown)**

I’m working with a VC-backed AI company in New York, funded by some of the biggest names in venture. Their platform is replacing legacy software inside some very large, very regulated businesses.

This is a backend. Their product installs inside each customer’s own environment rather than being sold as a website, so there’s nothing consumer-facing to build. Services, integrations and data movement, end to end.

What you’ll be doing

🧠Building the services, APIs and data pipelines the platform runs on

🧠Scaling and toughening their AWS estate to handle insurer-level load

🧠Diagnosing issues across request logs and message queues, and making the system more reliable under pressure

What we’re looking for

🧠Six or more years building software, with your strength in backend systems or the infrastructure beneath them

🧠A track record of making architecture decisions, shipping them and running them in production

🧠Strong Node, TypeScript experience

🧠Deep AWS experience (Cognito, SQS, Lambda, Fargate, App Runner, DynamoDB, Sage, ECS, S3, Cloudfront)

The interview process will be 2 stages, a phone call with the VPoE and then an in person interview.

Candidates must be able to start within the next 10 days so if you are interested, please reach out to me with your latest CV.
