Senior Backend/Full-Stack Engineer

Job description

Senior BE-oriented FullStack Engineer

Who we are:

Adaptiq is a technology hub specializing in building, scaling, and supporting R&D teams for high-end, fast-growing product companies in a wide range of industries.

About the Product:

Our client is building a platform designed to intercept and govern high-velocity AI traffic in real time. It inspects user prompts, AI responses, coding-agent actions, and enterprise search outputs across HTTP streams, IDE plugins, LLM APIs, and internal microservices—applying need-to-know access filters, policy transformations, and audit controls.

The system operates within sub-second decision loops, performs live data-stream classification, and enforces role- and context-based knowledge isolation, all while supporting deployment at global enterprise scale. Standard access-control models don’t hold in the AI era, which makes this engineering challenge both technically demanding and mission-critical: the team is building the control plane that keeps AI systems operating within strict business and security boundaries..

About the Role:

We are seeking a Senior Full-Stack Engineer (Backend-oriented) to join a remote, product-driven team building a real-time AI-governance platform for enterprise environments. You will focus primarily on backend development using Node.js—designing scalable services, APIs, and core backend flows—while contributing to front-end tasks in React when needed to deliver complete features.

In this role, you’ll own development end-to-end, collaborate closely with engineering, product, and a small AI/security group, participate in architectural decisions, and help evolve a high-performance platform operating under strict real-time constraints.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, build, and maintain backend services and infrastructure for a real-time AI-governance platform (Node.js/TypeScript)
  • Develop scalable APIs, policy-evaluation flows, data-processing logic, and distributed components
  • Contribute to front-end functionality (React/TypeScript) when required for full feature delivery
  • Participate in architectural design, technical discussions, and code review processes
  • Build and support deployment tooling and containerized services across multiple environments
  • Write well-tested, maintainable code aligned with a high-frequency release cycle
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, QA, DevOps, and AI/security team members to deliver high-quality features on schedule
  • Take ownership of debugging, improving, and maintaining existing backend systems alongside new development

Required Competence and Skills:

  • 7+ years of professional software development experience
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience with Node.js and TypeScript
  • Solid understanding of backend architecture, distributed systems, and scalable service design
  • Experience with front-end technologies (React) sufficient for supporting full-stack delivery
  • Strong knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript runtime patterns and performance considerations
  • Experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL or equivalent)
  • Experience with containerized development environments and cloud-native practices
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work asynchronously in a distributed team
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment with high ownership expectations
  • Excellent English communication skills, both verbal and written

Nice to have:

  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar)
  • Experience with Python and/or Go
  • Production experience with TypeScript-based Node.js services
  • Exposure to LLM/AI-driven applications (LLM APIs, vector DBs, orchestration tools)
  • Experience integrating ML/AI models into production systems
  • Background in B2B or security-oriented products
  • BSc in Computer Science or related field

Why Us?

We provide 20 days of vacation leave per calendar year (plus official national holidays of a country you are based in).

We provide full accounting and legal support in all countries we operate.

We utilize a fully remote work model with a powerful workstation and co-working space in case you need it.

We offer a highly competitive package with yearly performance and compensation reviews.
