About the Company
 
Our client is New Zealand's largest and most established local deals marketplace, serving over 300,000 active shoppers and partnering with 12,000+ local businesses. Backed by a prominent parent group, they have spent 15 years connecting customers with premium dining, travel, experiences, and everyday products. They are currently entering an expansive, major engineering build phase including the launch of brand-new native mobile apps, an innovative subscription membership framework, a custom credit engine, and self-serve merchant tooling. 
 
They are now looking for an agile, collaborative Node.js Backend Developer to join their remote engineering cohort and scale the services powering this next-generation ecosystem.
 
Why You’ll Love Working With Us
 
  • HMO healthcare for you and your 1 dependent (with COVID insurance).

  • 20 combined SL/VLs per year accrued from day one (you will have 10 accrued once you pass regularization).

  • 13th-month bonus and Government-mandated benefits. 

  • Equipment will be provided + internet allowance.

  • Member Wellness Program.

  • Year-End Party + Christmas hamper.

 
What You’ll Be Doing
 
Reporting directly to a New Zealand-based Engineering Lead as part of the backend marketplace squad, you will drive the core services supporting order management, product catalogues, and digital transactions. Your responsibilities include:
 
  • Architect and Design APIs: Build, optimize, and maintain robust Node.js and Nest.js microservices utilizing REST and GraphQL architectures.

  • Develop Core Engines: Implement logic for the high-volume marketplace catalogue, payment gateways, inventory management, and the proprietary subscription credit engine.

  • Own Complex Integrations: Map data models and establish seamless integrations with external telecom providers (MVNO networks), Shopify plugins, and global payment processors.

  • Ensure Platform Health: Monitor, test, and elevate the performance, security, data integrity, and end-to-end observability across all cloud services.

  • Collaborate Across Squads: Work hand-in-hand with frontend web, mobile app, and architectural teams to participate in constructive code reviews and systems design.

 
What You’ll Bring
  • 3 to 5+ years of dedicated experience building enterprise-grade, high-traffic production backend systems.

  • Exceptional expertise in Node.js, TypeScript, and backend framework architectures like Nest.js (or Express/Fastify equivalents).

  • Proven track record of designing well-structured, clean, and highly performant RESTful or GraphQL APIs.

  • Strong knowledge of relational databases (SQL), complex data modeling, and hands-on comfort within cloud environments (AWS or GCP).

  • Solid grounding in Git version control, test-driven methodologies (unit/integration testing), and automated CI/CD pipelines.

  • Excellent written and verbal English proficiency, with the comfort levels needed to collaborate asynchronously across time zones.

Bonus Points For:
  • Background in e-commerce, retail tech, or marketplace platforms (specifically dealing with order management, inventory, or billing systems).

  • Practical exposure to Shopify APIs, webhooks, or third-party plugin ecosystems.

  • Experience working with event-driven architectures, message queues (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka, AWS SQS), or telco/MVNO integrations.

  • Modern fullstack familiarity (React, Next.js) or advanced observability and APM tooling.

  • Hands-on exploration or experience with Encore.ts.
