Job Overview

This listing is for a Senior Software Engineer position. The role is remote and is classified as full-time. For salary, the listing states $120,000 – $150,000. The requirements point towards TypeScript, React.js, Next.js, Node.js and MongoDB. The listing is aimed at the following profile: 5+ years. For general context: React is a popular library for building interactive user interfaces. Node.js lets developers run JavaScript on the server. Interested candidates can review the full details below and apply using the link provided on this page.

★ TypeScript: Adds types to JavaScript so mistakes are caught earlier; day to day it means defining interfaces and typing function inputs and outputs.
★ React.js: Building user interfaces from reusable components and managing the data that changes on screen.
★ Next.js: A React framework that adds routing, server rendering and API routes, so work often covers both pages and backend endpoints in one project.
★ Node.js: Running JavaScript on the server to build APIs, handle requests and talk to databases.
★ MongoDB: Storing data as flexible documents inside collections; the work usually involves schema design, queries and indexes.
★ PostgreSQL: A relational database where data lives in related tables; the work usually involves writing SQL and designing schemas.
★ SQL databases: Working with tables, relationships and queries to store and retrieve structured data.
★ REST APIs: Designing and consuming HTTP endpoints so a front end, mobile app or another service can exchange data.

★ TypeScript: interfaces versus type aliases, generics basics, typing API responses
★ React.js: components, props and state, useState and useEffect, lists, forms and conditional rendering
★ Next.js: App Router basics, server versus client components, data fetching and caching
★ Node.js: npm and modules, building a simple REST API, asynchronous file and network operations
★ MongoDB: CRUD queries, schema design choices, indexes and aggregation basics
★ PostgreSQL: joins, indexes, transactions and constraints
★ SQL databases: SELECT, JOIN and GROUP BY, primary and foreign keys, normalisation basics
★ REST APIs: HTTP methods and status codes, authentication basics such as tokens, validation and error responses

This role may be suitable for candidates who bring substantial experience and are comfortable owning technical decisions and supporting other team members. Applicants with working knowledge of TypeScript, React.js, Next.js, Node.js and MongoDB may feel well prepared for what the listing describes. A remote arrangement may suit people who work well independently and communicate clearly in writing. This is editorial guidance only, and the employer makes the final decision on suitability.

Applicants may want to highlight relevant experience with TypeScript, React.js, Next.js and Node.js in their CV. Keep your CV to the point and tailor the summary to this role rather than sending a generic version. These are general tips, not requirements stated by the employer.
