Role
Who you are
- 6–7+ years of professional experience in software engineering (including Staff or Senior-level experience)
- Strong expertise in backend development with Node.js/TypeScript (Express.js) and experience building scalable systems
- Solid knowledge of AWS and cloud-native architecture (Serverless, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and observability)
- Fluency in React/TypeScript (able to lead on frontend architecture and SDKs when needed)
- Experience with APIs, SDKs, and debugging workflows
- A passion for mentorship and raising the engineering bar through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing
- Excellent communication skills in English — able to explain complex technical topics clearly and collaborate with our Germany-/Thailand-based engineering team
- Berlin-based (or willing to relocate)
Desirable
- Experience with ETL tools, data pipelines, or high-throughput systems
- Familiarity with ISO 27001-compliant engineering practices
- Experience working with AI services or AWS AI-related services
- Experience in emerging practices such as agentic coding frameworks
What the job involves
- Lead in the code for our core product (Data Pipeline), while staying fluent across our other codebases (Importer, User Platform, Admin Panel). Write reference implementations and unblock complex work
- Shape the architecture of our scalable data pipeline product in close collaboration with senior engineers and the Tech Lead
- Define and enforce engineering standards (naming, testing, performance, security), short design docs, and ADRs (Architecture Decision Records)
- Add technical requirements to user stories with the PM and ensure Definition of Ready/Done is consistently met
- Drive code quality through deep reviews, pair programming (regular pair starts), and frequent pull requests
- Own an engineering-led backlog for technical debt and continuous improvements (pipeline throughput, parsing performance, observability)
- Establish compatibility and release practices for our JavaScript SDKs and public APIs: semantic versioning, deprecation policy, and contract tests
- Build a reproducible benchmark suite and reliability guardrails (feature flags, safe rollouts, rollback plans)
- Mentor and coach engineers by introducing coding principles, best practices, and architectural thinking into daily work
- Drive product architecture, ensuring resilience, scalability, and robustness of our services
Our take
In the landscape of software development, the onboarding of customer data remains a persistent challenge for businesses across various industries. Recognising the time-consuming and resource-intensive nature of manually restructuring messy data received from clients, nuvo has set out to tackle this process.
The company addresses the common pain points of countless reformatting cycles, which not only waste months of time and internal resources but also divert focus from core product development. Employing AI algorithms, nuvo automatically handles diverse use cases and transforms external data into valuable assets, enabling businesses to map and transform data into the desired structure and format.
Since its inception, nuvo has attracted attention and support, with 2023 funding being used to further develop its AI algorithms, solidifying its value. With a robust foundation and a growing client portfolio, nuvo is poised to play a pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of data onboarding and could become a leading platform for data movements in the software development realm.
