About the Opportunity

Pragmatike is recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing technology company building critical infrastructure that powers high-volume, real-time business operations across multiple systems and platforms.

We are seeking a Backend Software Engineer with strong TypeScript and NestJS expertise to help design, build, and scale integration-heavy backend services that process large volumes of transactions and data. This is an opportunity to join a high-ownership engineering culture where developers are encouraged to move quickly, solve meaningful technical challenges, and have a direct impact on product and platform evolution.

You'll work closely with Product, Engineering, and Operations teams to build reliable, scalable systems that support mission-critical workflows used by customers worldwide.

What You'll Do
  • Design, develop, and maintain backend services using TypeScript and NestJS.

  • Architect and implement scalable APIs, integrations, and event-driven systems.

  • Build and optimize high-throughput workflows that process large volumes of transactions and data.

  • Design data models, service architectures, and integration patterns for complex distributed systems.

  • Develop reliable asynchronous processing systems using queues, workers, and background jobs.

  • Collaborate with Product and cross-functional teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

  • Improve platform reliability, performance, and operational efficiency.

  • Implement observability best practices, including logging, monitoring, metrics, tracing, and alerting.

  • Contribute to API design, developer experience, documentation, and internal tooling.

  • Participate in architectural discussions and influence long-term platform strategy.

  • Leverage modern AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity and code quality.

  • Take ownership of projects from design through deployment and ongoing optimization.

What We're Looking For
  • 4+ years of professional backend software engineering experience.

  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript and experience building production systems with NestJS or similar Node.js frameworks.

  • Proven experience designing and building scalable APIs and backend services.

  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and asynchronous processing.

  • Experience integrating with third-party APIs, webhooks, and external platforms.

  • Solid system design skills and the ability to architect solutions that handle significant scale and complexity.

  • Experience working with observability tools, monitoring systems, and production troubleshooting.

  • Strong understanding of software engineering best practices, testing, and maintainability.

  • Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.

  • A proactive, ownership-driven mindset with the ability to work independently in a remote environment.

Nice to Have
  • Experience with queue management and background job processing tools such as BullMQ or similar technologies.

  • Familiarity with Next.js or modern frontend frameworks.

  • Experience building high-volume transactional or integration-heavy systems.

  • Exposure to cloud infrastructure and DevOps best practices.

  • Experience working in startup or high-growth environments.

  • Knowledge of distributed architectures, microservices, and platform engineering concepts.

  • Experience using AI-powered development tools as part of your engineering workflow.

Why Join?

Our client is building highly scalable technology that sits at the core of critical business operations, offering engineers the opportunity to work on complex systems, large-scale integrations, and real-world technical challenges.

You'll join a collaborative, fast-moving environment where ownership is encouraged, decisions are made quickly, and engineers have meaningful influence on architecture, product direction, and engineering culture.

This role offers the opportunity to tackle challenging backend problems, work with modern technologies, and grow alongside an ambitious team building for scale.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
