Description

We are looking for a Senior Back-end Developer to join our fast-growing fintech team!

What are we building:
A payment solution for clients, agencies, and freelancers from service industries, offering industry-grade contracts where transactions are split into incremental and upfront installments, all backed by Escrow (safe vault). Every deal and feedback to it is added to the Professional on-chain passports, which are used to prove reputation, delivered work, and experience.

Why it matters:
Regardless of how clients, freelancers, and service delivery companies conduct business, all parties face regular financial losses due to non-payments, delayed payments, and ever-growing freelance marketplaces’ fees.
A freelancer’s trackable work on marketplaces is their key asset, but they lack ownership over their profiles, risking the loss of valuable data-backed trust.

Uniqueness:
Midcontract will be the only platform out there offering 100% Escrow for all contract types, as well as fiat and crypto support, combined with the extreme speed of money delivery (5x faster than Upwork, 8x faster than in paper contracts), and low fees. Freelancers and agencies will obtain On-chain Passports with lifetime control over their work history and reputation

Opportunity :

- Joining our team means being part of a dynamic, fast-paced environment where your contributions can shape the future of our Fintech solution for freelancers.
- As an early member of our team, you’ll have a unique chance to leave your mark on our journey. Your ideas and expertise will play a pivotal role in influencing the direction, growth, and success of our product. This is not just another job; it’s a chance to be part of something extraordinary from the very beginning.
- We offer a collaborative culture that nurtures creativity, encourages innovation, and fosters continuous learning.


Experience with:

- Microservices, gRPC
- Node.js, Node Test Runner
- Typescript, Redis
- Postgres
- GraphQl
- Nest
- WebSocket
- Docker
- JSON Schema, OWASP (10, ASVS)

Nice to have experience with:

- Blockchain, integrations with various payment service providers

Responsibilities:

- Leading the design and implementation of scalable and efficient microservices architecture using gRPC, while ensuring seamless integration with the overall system.
- Developing robust back-end services using Node.js and TypeScript, and optimizing performance with Redis caching and session management.
- Managing and optimizing Postgres databases, ensuring data integrity and performance, and implementing WebSocket for real-time communication.
- Enforcing application security by adhering to OWASP Top 10 and ASVS standards, and using JSON Schema for consistent data validation.
- Utilizing Docker for effective containerization, and potentially integrating blockchain technologies and various payment service providers for enhanced functionality.

The contract is mid-term and part-time so far with the potential to become full-time and long-term.

Our offer is:
- Flexibility and trust
- Remote work
- Long-term relationship
- Team management and coaching support all time
- Great team of senior professional
