The Role

The data team at Solink builds and manages a growing list of over 300 integrations to various data systems, including databases, POS systems, access control systems, analytics platforms, APIs, and more. These integrations form the basis of Solink’s powerful data analytics platform, a critical component of the Solink application.

We’re looking for a passionate Intermediate Full Stack Developer to join our Data Infrastructure team. In this role, you will play a key part in building and maintaining data infrastructure that supports 10M+ events per day. You will work on multiple components of the product and AWS infrastructure in collaboration with architects and other R&D teams. Your work will directly contribute to the scalability and efficiency of our data processing pipeline.

What You’ll Do

• Build Scalable Infrastructure: Design and maintain backend systems and data infrastructure that support high volumes of integrations and real-time events across the Solink platform.

• Own the Full Stack: Contribute to both backend and frontend development using Node.js, React, and Serverless frameworks—delivering performant, reliable features used by thousands of customers.

• Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with architects, R&D, and cross-functional teams to implement new capabilities, improve system performance, and shape technical direction.

• Plan with Intention: Participate in recurring design and planning meetings to scope and break down future work with input from product and engineering stakeholders.

• Drive Tasks to Completion: Use Jira to manage and prioritize your work, taking full ownership of deliverables while maintaining strong team collaboration.

• Support the Product: Assist customer support and success teams by troubleshooting, resolving issues, and delivering clear, technical explanations when needed.

• Innovate with Purpose: Stay ahead of the curve by researching new technologies and contributing ideas to continuously improve product performance, maintainability, and scalability.

• Be a Team Player: Step in wherever needed to help your team hit goals, share knowledge, and uphold Solink’s culture of quality and collaboration.

What You Bring

Must-Have:

• Technically Grounded: You have 3–5 years of software development experience, supported by a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technology field.

• Collaborative Developer: You thrive in team environments, contribute in design sessions, and communicate effectively with peers, product managers, and leadership.

• Cloud Fluent: You’ve built and deployed applications using AWS services like Lambda, VPC, DynamoDB, ElastiCache, SQS, and Kinesis. Cloud-native thinking is second nature.

• Strong in JS/TS: You’re proficient in JavaScript and TypeScript and know how to deliver clean, efficient code across full stack applications.

• Serverless-Savvy: You have practical experience designing and maintaining serverless infrastructure, and understand how to build for scalability and cost-efficiency.

• Data-Informed: You’ve worked with data warehousing tools such as Snowflake and can navigate the challenges of building reliable, scalable data pipelines.

• Agile Aligned: You’re comfortable managing your work in Jira, participating in agile ceremonies, and helping teams break down and plan upcoming features.

• Independent Contributor: You take ownership of your work, move initiatives forward independently, and know when to collaborate or ask for input.

Nice-to-Have:

• Frontend Experience: Hands-on experience with React or similar modern frameworks.

• DevOps & IaC: Familiarity with infrastructure as code tools like CloudFormation, AWS CDK, Terraform, or Serverless Framework.

• Database Breadth: Experience working with SQL/NoSQL systems—especially Elasticsearch or DynamoDB.

• Security-Minded: Knowledge of information security and cybersecurity best practices.

• Polyglot Perspective: Comfort with multiple programming languages beyond JavaScript/TypeScript.
