Backend NoSQL Developer – Remote (US Candidates)

We are seeking an experienced Backend NoSQL Developer based in the United States for a full-time contract opportunity. This is a 100% remote role with flexibility to overlap U.S. Central Time (CT) hours.

What You’ll Do

1. Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services with a focus on NoSQL database technologies (e.g., DynamoDB, MongoDB, Cassandra, or Couchbase).
2. Collaborate with frontend developers, DevOps engineers, and QA to deliver robust, end-to-end data-driven solutions.
3. Develop and consume RESTful APIs and, where appropriate, implement event-driven architectures.
4. Architect microservices and handle data persistence, indexing, and optimization across distributed NoSQL systems.
5. Write clean, testable, and well-documented code; author and execute unit/integration tests for backend components.
6. Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and agile ceremonies (Scrum/Kanban).
7. Ensure application security, performance tuning, and scalable deployments within AWS or other cloud environments.
8. Stay up to date with the latest in NoSQL trends, distributed system best practices, and backend development tools.

What We’re Looking For

1. Strong hands-on experience with backend development in Python, Node.js, or Java, with a proven focus on NoSQL databases (DynamoDB, MongoDB, Cassandra, Couchbase, etc.).
2. Proficiency in designing and optimizing large-scale NoSQL data models and distributed systems.
3. Experience building and securing RESTful APIs; knowledge of authentication and authorization best practices is advantageous.
4. Comfortable with Git workflows (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) and CI/CD pipelines (CircleCI, Git, etc.).
5. Strong grasp of software architecture patterns, distributed systems, and database design principles.
6. Excellent problem-solving skills and effective communication in a distributed team environment.

Bonus

1. Experience with Docker, AWS (Lambda, Fargate, Bedrock, DynamoDB, S3, Kinesis), and infrastructure as code (Terraform).
2. Familiarity with cloud-native and serverless architectures.
3. Knowledge of automated testing frameworks (pytest, unittest, or similar).
4. Exposure to monitoring and logging tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
5. Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures and messaging systems (e.g., AWS Kinesis, SQS, SNS).
