By 2030, our vision is to turn vehicle data into timely, personal moments that build trust and drive loyalty, while streamlining operations and boosting efficiency across the value chain.\n\nOur team consists of around 70 people from diverse backgrounds and nationalities, brought together by a shared belief in team effort, community, and delivering quality products and solutions.\n\nThe Position\n\nWe are currently using Node.js (mainly TypeScript), Kubernetes, MySQL, and BigQuery on the backend, hosted on Google Cloud Platform. Having scaled our backend to a global presence, we rely heavily on Infrastructure as Code using Terraform. We believe in releasing early and often, supported by an automated CI/CD pipeline running multiple daily deployments.\n\nOur engineers work in agile, cross-functional teams of 3–4 people with minimal overhead and bureaucracy. We empower our teams with full decision-making power over how they work, what they focus on, and how they deliver functionality.\n\nAs a Senior Backend Developer, you will architect and build robust APIs, backend services, and databases, while taking full ownership of your code from development to production monitoring (via Grafana and Google Cloud Monitoring). You will collaborate closely with other internal engineering teams and periodically communicate with external stakeholders to align on technical integrations and requirements.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\n\nWe are seeking a skilled, autonomous engineer with 5+ years of professional backend experience who possesses an inquisitive mind and thrives on taking full ownership of complex problems. You are driven, enthusiastic about software engineering, and proactive in figuring out what needs to be built. Beyond technical execution, you enjoy working cross-functionally and act as a supportive mentor within your team to help colleagues find effective solutions.\n\nKey qualifications and experience:\n\n5+ years of experience as a backend engineer building scalable systems.\n\nStrong proficiency in Node.js, TypeScript, and building RESTful/GraphQL APIs.\n\nSolid experience with relational databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and managing large datasets (terabytes in BigQuery or similar).\n\nProven ability to work cross-functionally and effectively communicate with external stakeholders.\n\nHigh degree of autonomy, problem-solving drive, and a natural curiosity to explore new technical solutions.\n\nPassion for high-quality code, TDD, CI/CD, and mentorship.\n\nOur team is made up of people who genuinely enjoy the process of building things. If you have a GitHub account, a side project, or open-source experience, we’d love to hear about it.\n\nWhy Connected Cars\n\nA collaborative, innovative work environment that encourages growth, ownership, and technical autonomy.\n\nCompetitive salary package and an attractive pension scheme.\n\nFriday bars, monthly social events, an affordable lunch scheme, and unlimited snacks in the office.\n\nConnected Cars is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.\n\nPlease send your application through LinkedIn with an up-to-date CV. It is not necessary to provide a cover letter, but feel free to if there is extra information you think we should know.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3634,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T14:52:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":38,"reasons":["seen:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/connected-cars-senior-backend-developer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/connected-cars-senior-backend-developer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-16T03:43:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":214,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-17T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2552612},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2552612"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fconnected-cars-senior-backend-developer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fconnected-cars-senior-backend-developer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fconnected-cars-senior-backend-developer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/connected-cars-senior-backend-developer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fconnected-cars-senior-backend-developer"}]}
