Full Job Description
Innoverse is a software product studio and venture builder. We design, build, and scale digital products for startups and growing companies — and we co-build our own.

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who wants to own systems end-to-end, not just close tickets. You'll work across diverse projects — from fintech platforms to AI-powered SaaS — and help shape how we build software as a team.

This isn't a role where you'll sit in meetings all day. You'll write code, design systems, and ship things that matter.

What you'll do

Own backend services end-to-end — from architecture through deployment to production support
Build and evolve REST APIs and microservice architectures for clients and internal products
Collaborate with founders and product teams to turn business problems into technical solutions
Contribute to system design decisions, code reviews, and engineering best practices
Investigate and resolve production issues with a reliability-first mindset
What we look for

5+ years of professional backend development experience
Strong expertise in TypeScript and Node.js (NestJS, Express, or similar)
Deep understanding of backend architecture: services, APIs, queues, caching, async workflows
Solid knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL) and SQL
Real production experience: debugging, incident response, performance optimization
Ability to reason about trade-offs and make pragmatic technical decisions
Strong communication skills and comfort with async, remote collaboration
English level B2+, written and spoken
Nice to have

Experience with AWS and containerization (Docker)
Familiarity with event-driven architecture and message brokers (Kafka, RabbitMQ)
Exposure to AI/LLM integration or AI development tools (Copilot, Claude Code)
What we offer

Competitive compensation — paid reliably and on time, always
Remote-first — work from anywhere in CET-aligned time zones
Real ownership — shape products, not just implement features
Small team, big impact — your work matters here
Equipment support to set up your workspace
No algorithm puzzles in interviews — we focus on real engineering
About Innoverse

We're builders. We build for clients, we build with partners, and we build for ourselves. Our team brings over a decade of engineering experience across HR tech, hospitality, sports, fintech, and SaaS — building everything from distributed crawlers to microservice architectures to AI-backed platforms.

Simplicity over complexity. Outcomes over elegance. Real problems, real solutions.
