As a Senior Software Engineer (SDE 2/3), you are the architect of high-availability systems that synchronize online sales, offline inventory, and complex logistics in real-time.\n\n- You won't just be \"writing APIs\"; you will be designing the distributed infrastructure that ensures a seamless experience for millions of users. You will join a team that values Observability as much as Performance, working in an environment where your decisions on system design and fault tolerance directly impact the global retail landscape.\n\nThe Daily Craft : What Youll Actually Build :\n\nDistributed Systems & Microservices :\n\n- You will design and maintain large-scale backend systems using Node.js (TypeScript). These services aren't just standalone appsthey are containerized via Docker and orchestrated on Kubernetes (GKE/EKS) to handle massive bursts in traffic without breaking a sweat.\n\nEvent-Driven Architecture :\n\n- You will build asynchronous, resilient systems leveraging Apache Kafka for data streaming. Whether it's managing inter-service communication or real-time data synchronization across third-party platforms, youll ensure that data flows reliably and instantly.\n\nEngineering Governance & Mentorship :\n\n- As an SDE 2/3, you are a force multiplier. You will conduct deep-dive design reviews, mentor junior engineers, and establish the gold standards for maintainable, secure code. Youll also lead incident responses and perform root-cause analysis to ensure the system evolves with every challenge.\n\nYour Blueprint : The Skills You Bring :\n\n- The Core : 5-8 years of professional experience with Node.js, TypeScript, and NestJS. You have a deep understanding of system design and distributed patterns.\n\n- The Cloud Stack : Expert knowledge of Kubernetes (K8s), Helm, and GCP/AWS. You treat infrastructure as a mission-critical component of your code.\n\n- The Data Engine : Proficiency in PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and caching layers like Redis. If you have exposure to ClickHouse or Temporal.io, youll find our challenges particularly exciting.\n\n- The Observability Eye : You don't \"guess\" why a system is slow; you use Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry to know for sure.\n\nWhat We Offer : \n\n- Limitless Growth : We don't just grow products; we grow people. Through Flex University and our Learning Wallet, we fund your journey to becoming a technical leader.\n\n- Holistic Wellness : A comprehensive Mediclaim policy for you and your entire family (spouse, kids, and parents), plus access to professional therapy for mental well-being.\n\n- The Power of Proximity : We work from the office 5 days a week because we believe that high-impact engineering requires the kind of spontaneous collaboration that only happens in person.\n\nSkills\nNode.js, TypeScript, NestJS, System Design, Distributed Systems, PostgreSQL, Prometheus","description_format":"text","description_chars":3363,"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":"2026-09-25T16:00:00Z"}],"liveness":{"score":44,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.444,"p_room":1,"age_days":2,"expected_fill_days":8,"reasons":["seen:2","agency","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-09-28T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/hiringblaze-software-development-engineer-iiiii","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/hiringblaze-software-development-engineer-iiiii.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-29T00:48:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":731,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":4269,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-09-30T00:00:00Z"}}}
