In short, it's the perfect time to join as we aim for unicorn and beyond About the Role: We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help us evolve our core business engine. This role is deeply hands on and implementation focused, with strong scope for architectural input. If you're driven by complex domains, clean abstractions, and high impact ownership, this is for you. Behind the scenes, our systems model deep commercial logic, financial rules, and real world operations at scale. We're moving fast, redesigning our architecture for the next chapter, and hiring exceptional engineers to help us build the future of global trade in drinks. What You'll Do: Own the design and implementation of backend systems driving business critical workflows, financial calculations, and operational tooling.

Shape and evolve our architecture as we transition from Java to Node.js/TypeScript in a modern AWS based environment. Work closely with product and operations to build features that serve both external users and internal teams. Play a key role in refactoring and rearchitecting complex codebases, balancing performance, readability, and testability.

What We're Looking For: Technical Experience: Extensive backend development experience in complex domains. Fluency in 3 or more programming languages - you're a polyglot who chooses tools pragmatically. Strong fundamentals in system design, software architecture, and data modelling. Deep experience working in complex domains - such as financial systems, logistics, or workflow heavy platforms. Hands on experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred). Comfortable working in an event driven, modular monolith environment. Experience with refactoring legacy systems and shaping technical direction.

You take extreme ownership, from implementation through to adoption and long term maintainability. You're self driven, collaborative, and humble - you care about outcomes more than credit. You value pragmatism over purity and optimise for business impact. Why Ferovinum? Build software that models and solves real world complexity at scale. Work with a team of experienced engineers who care deeply about quality and pragmatism. Help shape a fast growing startup with a clear vision and exciting trajectory. Have a real impact on how capital flows through global supply chains. Join a culture that values intellect, ownership, merit, and velocity.
